1. The Sun (in our solar system) has a power output of 3.9×102 Watts. The Earth orbits 23 degrees relative to the plane of 1.5×1011 meters. The Earth's axis of rotation is tilted a. What power strikes a 1 m2 solar orbit b. Will a 1 m2 solar panel a point Q ? c. Suppose you want to power point R or 5 receive more power? Why? efficient for now). If power the entre Earth with solar paneis (100 percent surface area would you need?
1. The Sun (in our solar system) has a power output of 3.9×102n Watts. The Earth orbith in a circular orbit with a radius of 1.5×10′1 meters. The Earth's axis of totation is tilted 23 degrees relative to the plane of the orbit. a. What power strikes a 1 m2 solar panel a point R? b. Vill a 1 m2 solar panel at point P or S receive more power? Why? c. Suppose you want to power the entire Earth with solar panels (100 percent efficient for now). If the Earth uses 15 terawatts (15x 1012 Watts), how large of a surface area would you need?
