A solar car is an electric vehicle powered by solar energy. This is the result obtained from solar panels on the surface (usually the top) of the vehicle. Photovoltaic cells integrated into the panels convert the sun’s energy directly into electrical energy‚ electricity is captured and then stored in batteries that power the electric motor of the car. Electrical systems and electronic control the operation from capture to storage of solar energy received."In 1982‚ the Australian Hans Tholstrup built

The principle at work is Newton’s Third Law of Motion‚ which states that for every action‚ there is an equal and opposite reaction. In the case of the Balloon Powered Car‚ the action is the air rushing from the straw. The reaction is the

Balloon Powered Car Racer Background of the Study: Sir Isaac Newton developed three laws of motion in 1665 when he was only 23 years old. These laws revolutionized how science explained movement by describing how the forces acting on an object are responsible for the object’s motion. Balloon powered car racer is driven by air coming from a deflating balloon. As an alternative of using electricity‚ these cars make use of the Law of Action and Reaction (Newton’s Third Law of Motion). The car is propelled
