A study of the Earth by The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) determined there were 7.80×1011 tons of carbon stored in living plants on the Earth's surface, at the time of the study. Calculate the mass of carbon stored in these plants in grams. (1 ton equals 907.19 kg)

The earth remains in orbit around the sun due to the force of gravity. how does the force of gravity exerted by the sun on the earth compare to the force of gravity exerted by the earth on the sun?

Alinearly polarized electromagnetic wave has an average intensity of 196 w/m^2. this wave is directed towards two ideal polarizers (in real polarizers, transmission is also effected by reflection and absorption). polarizer a is oriented with its transmission axis at an angle of θ_1=20.8∘ with the incident electric field. polarizer b has its axis at an angle of θ_2=63.0∘ with the incident electric field. what is the average intensity of the wave after it passes through polarizer a? what is the average intensity of the wave after it passes through polarizer b? suppose that the two polarizers a and b are interchanged. what would the average intensity be after passing through both polarizers?

Give an example of a collision in real life. use the law of conservation of energy to describe the transfer of momentum. be sure and discuss the momentum before and after the collision occurs. you will need at least 3 sentences to thoroughly answer this question.
