Then we would receive only 1/4 of the sunlight we receive now.

If the distance to a star is doubled, its apparent intensity or brightness would be reduced to one quarter (1/4) that of its original intensity.

What planet has twice the earth's period of revolution?
Mars has an orbital period of very approximately twice that of the earth
Are electrons are energized twice during photosynthesis?
Yes because there are two photosystems (clusters of chlorophyll) which is where the sunlight is absorbed from, the electrons are energized at both times because sunlight contains photons which are the molecules that energize the electrons in the first place
Which of these planets has twice the earth's period of revolution?
Saturn has a period of revolution that is approximately twice as long as Earth's. While Earth takes about 365 days to complete one revolution around the Sun, Saturn takes roughly 29.5 Earth years to complete its orbit.
What planet has twice the earth's period are re volution?
Actually, the answer is Mars. Mars' revolution is 1.88 years which is almost twice as the revolution of Earth.
Do spring tides happen twice a month?
Yes
if the earth had twice it’s present radius and twice it’s present mass, what would happen to your weight explain your answer?

How would solar eclipses be different if the moon were twice as far from the earth?
At that time, total solar eclipses will not happen; they will be a thing of the past. That time is coming; the moon is very slowly moving farther and farther from earth. There would be no Total Solar eclipse if the moon were twice as far from the earth, the reason is that the earth would never fall in the umbra, which is the place where sunlight is completely blocked. Even to this day only a small portion of our earth will ever get to see a total solar eclipse. however a very small portion of earth located right behind the shadow will see a annular solar eclipse, in which a ring of sunlight surrounds the disk of the moon. The ring would be much bigger if the moon was twice the distance.
What would happen if earth began to rotate twice?
Actually I dont know, but I guess the rate of everything happeningnow would be twice as fast.
What would happen if the sun was twice as massive?
if it was twice as massive, earth probably have burned, noone would be here, and surviving would be a 1 out of 100,000
If the sun had twice as much diameter and mass what would happen to the gravitational force between Earth and the Sun?
Double
What would happen if the earth had twice as much oxygen?
If Earth had twice as much oxygen as it does, fires would start easier and burn hotter. Arthropods (insects, spiders and the like) could be a good deal larger than they are now.
When was Don't Happen Twice created?
Don't Happen Twice was created on 2001-01-29.
Is sunlight reusable?
You can't use the same bit of sunlight twice, if that's what you mean, but for our purposes the sun's energy is inexhaustible.
What would happen to both night and day if the earth took twice as long to spin on its axis?
Days and nights would be twice as long, obviously. The slower rotation would have impacts on the weather, much of which is driven by the Earth spinning. Days would be warmer and nights cooler, for example, because each spot on the Earth would have twice as long in the sunshine to heat up, with twice as long at night for heat to radiate away.
Why is earth hour not on Earth Day?
They are just two separate events (holidays, events, celebrations, whatever you want to call them) that happen to be on similar topics, but still fall on different days. (Plus, it helps the earth twice!)
