The area of the Earth (Ae) that is irradiated by is given by:
Ae = 4πRe^2, where Re = Distance from Sun to Earth
Substituting;
Ae = 4π*(1.5*10^8*1000)^2 = 2.827*10^23 m^2
On the Earth, insolation (We) = Psun/Ae
Therefore,
Psun (Rate at which sun emits energy) = We*Ae = 1.4*2.827*10^23 = 3.958*10^23 kW = 3.958*10^26 W
Answer:
Pls give the equation and for what is that equation for?
Answer:
I am not sure about the answer as I don't have a proper calculator besides me now
Explanation:
but I used this equation:
(8.20)sin30(1-d)=10d
Idk whether it is correct or not, I'm just a student too
what is your method of doing this question?
Answer:
120 miles per hour.
Explanation:
We need to find the time it takes my parents to drive home from the cottage. Since my father drives at 60 miles per hour, and the cottage is 240 miles from our home, and distance = speed × time. So, time = distance/speed = 240 mi/60 mi/h = 4 h.
So, it will take my father 4 hours to drive home from the cottage.
Since I have 2 hours to prepare for the party, the time left for me to drive to the cottage is 4 - 2 hrs = 2 hrs.
So, I'm supposed to drive to the cottage in at most 2 hours.
The speed at which I must drive in this time period is thus, speed = distance/time = 240 miles/2 hours = 120 miles per hour.
So, I must drive at a minimum speed of 120 miles per hour.
