I converted my answer for pressure. I apologize, I simply forgot to do that before. I got that the pressure for each, assuming each follows the ideal gas law, would be about ## 1.38 \times 10^{-14} Pa ##, which is right around the vacuum pressure out in space. For part (b), I made the assumption...

Homework Statement
The intensity of sunlight reaching the Earth is 1360 \frac{W}{m^2}.
a.) Assuming all sunlight is absorbed, what is the radiation pressure force on the earth? Give your answer in Newtons. F_r=
b.) Give your answer as a fraction of the suns gravitational force on the earth...
That's something along the lines of what I thought of doing. I read up on the subject, and "uniform expansion" only means "without secular terms", so the approximation of my system won't blow up as t→∞. I'm just going to do the Taylor series DE thing. Thanks for your input, guys. It's greatly...
