A communications satellite orbiting the earth has solar panels that completely absorb all sunlight incident upon them. The total area A of the panels is 10m2.1) The intensity of the sun's radiation incident upon the earth is about I=1.4kW/m2. Suppose this is the value for the intensity of sunlight incident upon the satellite's solar panels. What is the total solar power P absorbed by the panels?Express your answer numerically in kilowatts to two significant figures.2) What is the total force F on the panels exerted by radiation pressure from the sunlight?Express the total force numerically, to two significant figures, in units of newtons.
