Radiation
Question

Assuming the sun to have a spherical outer surface of radius r, radiating like a black body at temperature t° C, the power received by a unit surface, (normal to the incident rays) at a distance R from the centre of the sun is:

Moderate
Solution

Total radiant power =σ(4πRsun2)Tsun44πd2=σr2(t+273)4R2
