Radiation from the Sun reaching Earth (just outside the atmosphere) has an intensity of 1.35 kW/m². (a) Assuming that Earth (and its atmosphere) behaves like a flat disk perpendicular to the Sun's rays and that all the incident energy is absorbed, calculate the force on Earth due to radiation pressure. (b) For comparison, calculate the force due to the Sun's gravitational attraction. Assume that the speed of light and Earth radius are 2.998 × 10⁸ m/s and 6.37 thousand km respectively.

A spherical mylar balloon filled with Hydrogen gas, with density 0.0899 kg/m³ and having radius 7 meters is immersed in a gas having density X1=1.205 for the first 10 km and X2=2.489 for the second 10 km (with the upper atmosphere density smaller than the lower atmosphere density). Determine how long it takes the balloon to reach the top of the second layer. To do this, you will have to: a) find the net force on the balloon (assume the mylar is massless) in the first layer, then assuming constant acceleration, determine the time to get to the bottom of the second layer, then b) repeat the exercise, but now calculating the buoyancy using the second layer of atmospheric gas.

A satellite is launched into an orbit at an altitude 200 km above the surface. Onboard is an exquisitely sensitive atomic clock that is synchronized with an identical clock on Earth. After orbiting for one year, the satellite is captured, returned to Earth, and the clocks compared. What will be the shift in time between the two clocks?

Measure all the dimension of the four objects and fill out the table below. As the ‘proof’ that you did the experiments, take a screenshot of your PC screen for at least one dimension of each and insert (copy and paste) the screenshots to the end of this data sheet. (For Window’s users, ‘snipping tool’ is convenient to take a screenshot. You can search the tool by searching ‘snipping tool’ on Windows Search. For Mac users, press ‘Command’ + ‘Shift’ + ‘3’ to capture a screenshot). Also, calculate the volume of each object using the following formulas. The volume of the sphere of dimeter reads
