Work Done ( By Gravity) = Mg.H

The puddle dries up cause of the radiation from the sun
Ideally, 576 J because energy is conserved.
In the real world, a tiny tiny tiny tiny bit less than 576 J ,
because we live in a world with friction and air resistance.
<span> most importantly, the sun is reflected back at the same angle as the angle of incidence, so with vertical panes of glass and the sun overhead, the reflection will just hit the ground before traveling any distance. </span>
