20percent of 200 W is 40 W i.e. only 40w per square metre power available . Total requirement is 8000W . Power per m^2 is 40 W . Area require 8000/40 i.e. 200 m^2

The Earth moving round the Sun in a circular orbit is acted upon by a force, and hence
work must be done on the Earth by this force. Do you agree with this statement?
The force on earth jn circular trajectory is gravity,acting radially inward...the direction of motion is tangential.....as u knw work is dot product of force and dx, the work done is zero.
