The light energy that falls on a square meter of ground over the course of a typical sunny day is about 20 MJ . The average rate of electric energy consumption in one house is 1.0 kW . Part A got answer for part A and is correct
On average, how much energy does one house use during each 24 hr day?
Express your answer using two significant figures.
=86 MJ

Part B
If light energy to electric energy conversion using solar cells is 15%efficient, how many square miles of land must be covered with solar cells to supply the electrical energy for 250,000 houses? Assume there is no cloud cover. A=mi^2

Estimate the kinetic energy of the neptune with respect to the sun as the sum of the terms, that due to its daily rotation about its axis, and that due to its yearly revolution about the sun. [assume the neptune is a uniform sphere with mass = 1.0×1026 kg , radius = 2.5×1010 m , rotation period 16.1 h , orbital period 6.01×104 d and is 4.6×109 km from the sun.]
