2. Our sun has a power output of roughly 3.87 1026 watts (W). This energy is transmitted essentially uniformly in all directions. By the time this radiation reaches the Earth, which has an average distance from the sun of 1.50 x 10" m, what is the intensity? (Recall that intensity is defined to be power per unit area). 3. The energy from the sun is primarily in the infrared and visual wavelengths. The following table gives the...

The sun has a power output of 3.83 × 1026 W. Installed on your roof is a solar panel that has a surface area of 1.40 m2 . How many photons from the Sun reach the panel? Assume that the average value of the wavelength of light is 580 nm. Assume also that the sun emits photons equally in all directions and that photons are not scattered or absorbed by atmosphere on their way to the panel. Use the average...

During a solar eclipse the Moon is positioned directly between Earth and the Sun. Find the magnitude of the net gravitational force acting on the Moon then, due to both Earth and the Sun. The masses of the Sun, Earth, and the Moon are 1.99 x100 kg, 5.98 x1024 kg, and 7.36 x 1022 kg, respectively. The Moon's mean distance from Earth is 3.84 × 108 m, and Earth's mean distance from the Sun is 1.50 x 1011 m. The...
