Before starting, we will convert all the givens into standard units as follows:
1.8 * 10^14 KJ/sec = 1.8 * 10^14 * 1000 = 1.8 * 10^17 J/sec
24 hours = 24 * 60 * 60 = 86400 second
Now, we are given that:
The earth receives 1.8 * 10^17 J/sec. We will begin by calculating the total energy received by the earth in 24-hours
Total energy = 1.8 * 10^17 * 86400 = 1.5552 * 10^22 Joules
Then we will get the mass from the following rule:
E = m * c^2 where:
E is the total energy = 1.5552 * 10^22 Joules
m is the mass we need to find
c is the speed of light = 3 * 10^8 m/sec
Substitute with the givens to get the mass as follows:
1.5552 * 10^22 = m * (3*10^8)^2
m = 172800 kg
I think it is B
Explained answer:
Glaciers dissolve and melt because they are made out of ice
Answer:
if im not mistaken that's a jetstream
Answer:
As you go down the periodic table, usually atoms get bigger because n gets bigger (there are electrons in higher shells). Effective nuclear charge does get bigger too going down the periodic table, but this effect is smaller than the change in shell.
