Earth’s atmosphere is constantly bombarded by cosmic ray protons that originate somewhere in space. if the protons all passed through the atmosphere, each square meter of earth’s surface would intercept protons at the average rate of 1500 protons per second. what would be the electric current intercepted by the total surface area of the planet?

Tafari worked one summer on a ship that set weather buoys in the ocean. he watched how one of the buoys moved in the water. describe which parts of the wave would cause the buoy to bob up and down. which wave property determined how fast the buoys bobbed in the water? he observed that when the wind blew harder, the ocean waves were larger, and the buoys moved away from the ship. what effect, if any, did the waves have on how far the buoys moved? explain your answer.
