The intensity of sunlight incident on the surface of a solar panel on your roof is 1000 w/m^2. calculate the sunlight energy absorbed by the panel in one hour if the length of the panel is 6.00 m and its width is 4.00 m and the sunlight is incident perpendicularly on the panel.

8.64 x 10^7 J

Explanation:

Intensity of sunlight, I = 1000 W/m^2

Length of panel, L = 6 m

Width of panel, W = 4 m

Area of the panel, A = L x W = 6 x 4 = 24 m^2

time, t = 1 hour = 3600 second

Energy = Intensity x area of panel x time

E = 1000 x 24 x 3600 = 8.64 x 10^7 J

the moon affects the earth gravitation ally, causing certain motions of that body and also producing tides in its ocean and atmosphere. the tidal wave in our atmosphere is, however, far too minute to be an effective cause in any known meteorological phenomenon.
