Well, the quantity alone doesn't point to any one particular process.
I mean, you could get 3.826 x 10²⁶ watts of heat out of a pile of
smoldering charcoal IF the pile was big enough and you kept it
supplied with enough oxygen.

The thing about the sun is that ==> it can churn out energy at that rate
from the mass that it has, ==> it has already been doing that for so many
billions of years, and ==> it will continue doing that for so many more
billions of years in the future.

The only possible process able to accomplish that is nuclear fusion.

tatyana61 [14]
If your asking about the total amount of time the sun is visible, it will be equal over the course of a year. In Nome, Alaska, it will be daylight almost 24 hours a day in the summer and be dark almost 24 hours a day in the winter. In San Diego they are much closer to the equator and will receive sunlight roughly the same amount each day all year long. In the end these times will add up to the same amount.

However if you are asking about intensity of sun light received, San Diego will get considerably more since its near the equator and its getting almost direct sunlight. In Nome, the sunlight is hitting the earth at an angle so fewer rays of light are hitting the ground per square foot.

An object has an acceleration of 12.0 m/s/s. The mass of the object is doubled while the net force on the object is held constan
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

The net force acting on the object is doubled while the mass of the object is held constant. What will be the new acceleration? An object has an acceleration of 12.0 m/s^2. The net force acting on the object is halved (decreased to one half its original value) while the mass of the object is held constant.

What is mean by the net displacement in transverse wave
natta225 [31]
In a transverse wave, the particles are disturbed in a direction perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Thus, waves travel through a medium with no net displacement of the distance between two successive particles of wave that are in wavelength.

Help with these three
Elenna [48]
The first: alright, first: you draw the person in the elevator, then draw a red arrow, pointing downwards, beginning from his center of mass. This arrow is representing the gravitational force, Fg.
You can always calculate this right away, if you know his mass, by multiplying his weight in kg by the gravitational constant
g = 9.81 \frac{m}{s {}^{2} }
let's do it for this case:
f_{g}  = m \times g \\ f _{g}  = 65kg \times 9.81 \frac{m}{s {}^{2} }  = 637.65
the unit of your fg will be in Newton [N]
so, first step solved, Fg is 637.65N
Fg is a field force by the way, and at the same time, the elevator is pushing up on him with 637.65N, so you draw another arrow pointing upwards, ending at the tip of the downwards arrow.
now let's calculate the force of the elevator
f = m \times a \\ f = 65 \times 5 \frac{m}{s {}^{2} }  \\ f = 325n
so you draw another arrow which is pointing downwards on him, because the elevator is accelating him upwards, making him heavier
the elevator force in this case is a contact force, because it only comes to existence while the two are touching, while Fg is the same everywhere
