Explanation:
Given that,
Average power of sun 
We need to calculate the intensity of light at Earth's position
Using formula of intensity
Where, I = intensity
P = power
Put the value into the formula
So, The intensity is 1347.616 W/m².
(A). We need to calculate the pressure on a solar sail due to the light of the sun if it's fully reflective
Using formula for fully reflective
Put the value into the formula
(B). We need to calculate the pressure on a solar sail due to the light of the sun if it's fully reflective
Using formula for fully absorptive
Hence, This is the required solution.
The form of energy that can move from place to place across the universe is light energy. On earth, the main source of this energy is Sun. Most of the light energy comes from the sun because it is the primary source of all the energies. The food, fossil fuels, movement of winds, etc all exists due to Sun. Without sun, there won't be any light energy on the earth. In all the processes which occur on earth has a direct or indirect involvement of light energy which comes from sun.
<span>Density is a measure of an object's </span>mass per unit of volume
Which means that it shows how much mass is contained within a volume of something.
I was about to say: because people generally get comfortable with
what they think they know, and don't like the discomfort of being told
that they have to change something they're comfortable with.
But then I thought about it a little bit more, and I have a different answer.
"Society" might initially reject a new scientific theory, because 'society'
is totally unequipped to render judgement of any kind regarding any
development in Science.
First of all, 'Society' is a thing that's made of a bunch of people, so it's
inherently unequipped to deal with scientific news. Anything that 'Society'
decides has a lot of the mob psychology in it, and a public opinion poll or
a popularity contest are terrible ways to evaluate a scientific discovery.
Second, let's face it. The main ingredient that comprises 'Society' ... people ...
are generally uneducated, unknowledgeable, unqualified, and clueless in the
substance, the history, and the methods of scientific inquiry and reporting.
There may be very good reasons that some particular a new scientific theory
should be rejected, or at least seriously questioned. But believe me, 'Society'
doesn't have them.
That's pretty much why.
