Only a small Percentage of the energy emitted by the sun strikes earth because, since the earth is going in circles round and round, the sun only hits part of the earth and not fully. So for example if the earth is going around and the sun hits Africa then in a couple minutes it will go to the next country and that country will have sunlight. Let me know if you need anything else or if this isn't partially correct. GLAD TO HELP! :)
Answer:v=41.23 m/s
Explanation:
Given
mass of heavy object 
distance of
from the axle 
mass of rock 
Length of rod 
distance of
from axle 
Net torque acting is




Work done by
is converted to rock kinetic Energy
thus

Where 





Answer:
a) t=24s
b) number of oscillations= 11
Explanation:
In case of a damped simple harmonic oscillator the equation of motion is
m(d²x/dt²)+b(dx/dt)+kx=0
Therefore on solving the above differential equation we get,
x(t)=A₀
where A(t)=A₀
A₀ is the amplitude at t=0 and
is the angular frequency of damped SHM, which is given by,

Now coming to the problem,
Given: m=1.2 kg
k=9.8 N/m
b=210 g/s= 0.21 kg/s
A₀=13 cm
a) A(t)=A₀/8
⇒A₀
=A₀/8
⇒
applying logarithm on both sides
⇒
⇒
substituting the values

b) 

, where
is time period of damped SHM
⇒
let
be number of oscillations made
then, 
⇒
Answer:
1.05 J.
Explanation:
Kinetic Energy: This is the energy possessed by a body due to its motion. The S.I unit of kinetic energy is Joules (J). The formula of kinetic energy is given as
Ek = 1/2mv²................. Equation 1
Where Ek = kinetic energy, m = mass of the uniform rod, v = liner velocity of the rod.
But,
v = αr .......................... Equation 2
Where α = angular velocity of the rod, r = radius of the circle.
Given: α = 3.6 red/s, r = 120/2 = 60 cm = 0.6 m.
Substitute into equation 2
v = 3.6(0.6)
v = 2.16 m/s.
Also given: m = 450 g = 0.45 kg.
Substitute into equation 1
Ek = 1/2(0.45)(2.16²)
Ek = 1.05 J.
