Describe why estimating the age of the Sun can give an approximate age of the Earth.

There are several independent ways of estimating the age and they all give nearly the same about 5 billion years. The age of the Sun can be estimated from the ages obtained from radioactive dating of the oldest meteorites. The oldest Earth rocks are also about 4.6 billion years old. (from google)

Explanation:

hope this helps! c:

By Age of the Earth is understood the total time since the earth has existed in its present physical state as a planet. In Geology, this problem has always been found as one of the most complicated and controversial topics.

Explanation:

emerging idea only occurs as a raw idea that could appear out of nowhere. meanwhile, to reach scientific consensus , that idea must be structured and tested over and over again through various experiments. the scientific consensus transforms the raw idea into idea that is more reliable through the process of scientific elimination.

measuring light intensity

light meters can be used to measure light intensity. the meter is held at the soil surface and pointed in the direction of the maximum light intensity, and then the meter is read.

errors can be made when measuring light intensity by accidentally shading the light meter. the reliability of the results can be checked by taking many samples.
