Answer:

F = 20.07 μN

Explanation:

given,                                            

intensity of sunlight = 667 W/m²

area of surface =  9.03 m²

speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

force = ?                                  

we know                                                                

force =intensity \times \dfrac{Area}{speed of light}

force =667 \times \dfrac{9.03}{3\times 10^8}

F = 20.07 x 10⁻⁶ N

F = 20.07 μN

Describe the formation of the land, the atmosphere, and the oceans of earth
Firlakuza [10]
Land: Tectonic plate movement under the Earth can create landforms by pushing up mountains and hills. Erosion by water and wind can wear down land and create landforms like valleys and canyons. ... Landforms can exist under water in the form of mountain ranges and basins under the sea.

Atmosphere: (4.6 billion years ago)
As Earth cooled, an atmosphere formed mainly from gases spewed from volcanoes. It included hydrogen sulfide, methane, and ten to 200 times as much carbon dioxide as today's atmosphere. After about half a billion years, Earth's surface cooled and solidified enough for water to collect on it.

Ocean: After the Earth's surface had cooled to a temperature below the boiling point of water, rain began to fall—and continued to fall for centuries. As the water drained into the great hollows in the Earth's surface, the primeval ocean came into existence. The forces of gravity prevented the water from leaving the planet.

A simple pendulum consisting of a bob of mass m attached to a string of length L swings with a period T. If the pendulum is take
Juli2301 [7.4K]

To solve this problem we will use the definition of the period in a simple pendulum, which warns that it is dependent on its length and gravity as follows:

T =2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

Here,

L = Length

g = Acceleration due to gravity

We can realize that 2 \pi is a constant so it is proportional to the square root of its length over its gravity,

T \propto \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

Since the body is in constant free fall, that is, a point where gravity tends to be zero:

g \rightarrow 0 \Rightarrow T \rightarrow \infty

The value of the period will tend to infinity. This indicates that the pendulum will no longer oscillate because both the pendulum and the point to which it is attached are in free fall.
