Our Sun shines bright with a luminosity of 3.828x10^26 Watt. Her energy is responsible for many processes and the habitable temperatures on the Earth that make our life possible. (a) Calculate the amount of energy arriving on the Earth in a single day
(b) To how many liters of heating oil ( energy density: 37.3x10^6 J/litre) is this equivalent?
(c) The Earth reflects 30% of this energy: Determine the temperature on Earth’s surface.
(d) What other factors should be considered to get an even more precise temperature estimate?
NOTE: The Earth’s radius is 6730km, the Sun’s radius is 696x10^3 km, 1AU is 1.495x10^8

Although longitudinal waves can travel through all media types what is the disadvantage of this type of wave transmission? a) he efficiency of he wave transmission is greatly diminished as the media becomes less dense b) the oscillation of one set of particles has a huge impact on neighboring particles c) particles become too close together as they bump into each other making it more likely to hit other particles down the line

Aperson touches a large chunk of ice with their hand and remarks, “this is making me cold.” explain what this person is feeling. is the ice transferring “cold” to the person? is there a heat transfer occurring? explain.

Neutrons are placed in a magnetic field with magnitude 2.30 t. part a part complete what is the energy difference between the states with the nuclear spin angular momentum components parallel and antiparallel to the field? δe δ e = 2.77×10−7 ev previous answers correct part b part complete which state is lower in energy: the one with its spin component parallel to the field or the one with its spin component antiparallel to the field? which state is lower in energy: the one with its spin component parallel to the field or the one with its spin component antiparallel to the field? parallel antiparallel previous answers correct part c part complete how do your results compare with the energy states for a proton in the same field (δe=4.05×10−7ev)? how do your results compare with the energy states for a proton in the same field this result is smaller than but comparable to that found in the example for protons. this result is greater than but comparable to that found in the example for protons. previous answers correct part d the neutrons can make transitions from one of these states to the other by emitting or absorbing a photon with energy equal to the energy difference of the two states. find the frequency of such a photon. f f = mhz previous answersrequest answer incorrect; try again; 5 attempts remaining
