During its final days as a red giant, the Sun will reach a peak luminosity of about 3000LSun. Earth will therefore absorb about 3,000 times as much solar energy as it does now, and it will need to radiate 3,000 times as much thermal energy to keep its surface temperature in balance. Part A Estimate the temperature Earth's surface will need to attain in order to radiate that much thermal energy. You will need to use the formula for emitted power per unit area. (Assume that Earth's temperature today is around 300 K.)

An engineer designs a roller coaster so that a car travels horizontally for 152 ft, then climbs 137 ft at an angle of 34.0° above the horizontal. it then moves 137 ft at an angle of 48.0° below the horizontal. if we take the initial horizontal motion of the car to be along the +x-axis, what is the car's displacement? (give the magnitude of your answer, in ft, to at least four significant figures and give the direction of your answer in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis.)
