Hey team ! Today I learnt a really interesting fact thanks to the book written by Sean Carroll called Something Deeply Hidden. I just have to tell someone. The power generated in gravitational waves by the Earth orbiting the Sun is close to ( choose one ) :
A. 2 Watts
B. 20 Watts
C. 200 Watts
D. 2 Kilowatts
E. 2 Megawatts
.... all answers/guesses must written on the back of a $50 note. :-)
ANSWER >> Yep it's C : 200W, a mere few light globes worth. And to think that the little wiggles detected at LIGO represent the blowing off of several Sun's worth of mass/energy. << ANSWER
Cheers, Mike.
