The rays of the sun are focused on a piece of ice through a lens of diameter 5 cm , as a result of which 10g ice melts in 10 minutes. The amount of heat received from the sun per unit area per minute is

At what angle to the horizon the sun be for is reflected rays from the surface of pond to be completely polarized ( mu of water =1.33)

Energy from various sources is considered to have been derived from the Sun. Do you agree ? Justify your answer.

The light from the sun is found to have a maximum intensity near the wavelength of 470nm. Assuming that the surface o f the sun emits as a blackbody, calculate the temperature of the surface of the sun.

Rays from the sun ar focuseed by a lens of diameter 5 cm on to a block of ice and 10 g of ice is melted in 20 min. Therefore the heat from the sun reaching the earth per min per square centrimetre is (Latent heat of ice L = 80 cal g^(-1) )

Let us assume that sun radiates like a black body with surface temperature at T_0=6000K and earth absorbs radiation coming from sun only. If both earth and sun are considered perfect spheres with distance between centre of earth and centre of sun to be 200 times the radius of sun, find the temperature (in Kelvin) of surface of earth in steady state (assume radiation incident on earth to be almost parallel).

Both earth and moon are subjected to the gravitational force of the sun. as observed from the sun, the orbit of the moon
