Question
![(Heat transfer) The energy radiated from the surface of the sun or a planet in the solar system can be calculated by using Stefan-Boltzmann’s Law:
\[E = \sigma \times T^4\]
- \(E\) is the energy radiated.
- \(\sigma\) is Stefan-Boltzmann’s constant \((5.6697 \times 10^{-8} \text{ watts/m}^2\text{K}^4)\).
- \(T\) is the surface temperature in degrees Kelvin (\(^\circ\text{K} = ^\circ\text{C} + 273\)).
a. Determine the units of \(E\) by calculating the units resulting from the right side of the formula.
b. Determine the energy radiated from the sun’s surface, given that the sun’s average temperature is approximately 6000°K.](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/08019a05-2185-427f-b07d-aa7d02050f78/cc924e04-7b32-47f4-8101-1e01c01ed425/xk5667q_thumbnail.jpeg)
