The typical power output from the sun on one square meter of the Earth's surface, under clear conditions at noon, is approximately 1,000 watts per square meter. This value, known as solar irradiance, can vary based on factors such as atmospheric conditions, angle of sunlight, and geographic location. On average, considering day and night and weather variations, the daily solar energy received is about 5 to 7 kWh per square meter.

Does the sun's energy output remain constant overtime?

Solar output is nearly, but not quite, constant. Variations in total solar irradiance were too small to detect with technology available before the satellite era. As the Earth rotates, the energy from the sun is distributed across the entire surface area. At any given moment, the amount of solar radiation received at a location on the Earth's surface depends on the state of the atmosphere, the location's latitude, and the time of day.


As the number of sunspots increases would the suns energy output also increase or decrease?

As the number of sunspots increases, the sun's energy output decreases. Sunspots are cooler areas on the sun's surface that correspond to stronger magnetic fields, leading to reduced energy production. This is known as the solar cycle, where high sunspot activity is associated with a decrease in overall energy output.


Do Hotter stars age more slowly then cooler stars?

The surface temperature is not a reliable indicator about how long a star will last. However, the total energy output is. If a star produces a lot of energy, it will burn through its fuel faster.


What color are middle aged stars?

Middle aged stars, like our Sun, appear yellow in color. This is due to their surface temperature and the way in which their light output is distributed across the visible spectrum.


How many lumen needed to produce 1 watt from solar panel?

The lumen output of a solar panel is not directly related to its power output in watts, as lumens measure light output, while watts measure electrical power. However, a rough estimate is that around 100 lumens per watt is a typical efficiency for LED lighting. For solar panels, the conversion efficiency from sunlight to electrical energy varies, but on average, about 15-20% efficiency is common, which means producing 1 watt of electrical power would require capturing approximately 1000-1500 lumens of sunlight, depending on the specific conditions and technology used.

How does the surface area of mitochondria or chloroplas affect its energy output?

The surface area of mitochondria or chloroplast affect its energy output because larger surfaces-to-volume ratio imply more loss of energy as opposed to smaller surface-to-volume ratios.


Is Card reader Writer input or output?

I expect you mean "Is Card reader/writer input or output?". If this is so, it is both an input and output device. Whenever you are trying to categorize a device as Input or Output, think of how it looks from the computer.If the computer is transmitting data to it, it is an Output device.If the computer is receiving data from it, it is an Input device.
