This is false. Sound travels faster through steel. That is why you can see people in movies putting their ear on the railroads to see whether a train is coming. That is because they can't hear it through air, but the sound travels through the steel.

The average intensity of sunlight at the top of the earth's atmosphere in 1390 w/m2. what is the maximum energy that a 34-m x 46
slavikrds [6]
Panel surface area =34m×46m=1,564m^2
total power =1564m^2×1390w/m^2
=2173960watts
now you must calculate total energy.
Energy = power×Time
However time must be in seconds so we multiply 2hrs×60min×60s=7200seconds
7200s×2173960w =15,652,512,000 joules of energy
