The Sun delivers radiant energy to Earth at a rate that averages approximately 1.3kW per square metre of the cross-sectional area of Earth. If we assume that all ofthis energy is absorbed by Earth (i.e., that Earth has an emissivity of one), at whatrate must Earth radiate energy if Earth’s temperature is to remain constant? Whatwould that constant temperature be? (Note: The actual temperature of Earth issomewhat higher due to the greenhouse effect of the atmosphere.)
