What is the value of the IR transmission factor (f) for a Venus-like planet, if the measured average surface temperature is 706 K? Assume the following values for the planet: E, = 2.60x10³ W m² and a = 0.71. Would the average temperature increase or decrease if f decreased?

A rotation rate, or frequency, of 500 nHz corresponds to a rotation period of 23 days—it takes 23 days for material to follow one complete circle around the Sun. Furthermore, the frequency and period are inversely proportional to one another: if one is doubled, the other is halved. Given these facts, what is the approximate rotation period (in days) for equatorial material at the Sun's surface? (Use your answer to the previous question as the rotation rate.)

A)At what altitude would a geostationary sattelite need to be above the surface of Mars? Assume the mass of Mars is 6.39 x 1023 kg, the length of a martian solar day is 24 hours 39minutes 35seconds, the length of the sidereal day is 24hours 37minutes 22seconds, and the equatorial radius is 3396 km. The answer can be calculated using Newton's verison of Kepler's third law.
