Calculate the value of lambda_max for solar radiation assuming that surface temperature of Sun is 5800 K (b = 2.897 xx 10^-3 mK ). In which part of the electromagnetic spectrum, does this value lie?

Assuming that the sun radiates as a black body, calculate the energy radiated per minute by unit area of its surface. Surface temperature of the sun = 5727^@C and Stefan's constant = 5.7 xx10^-8 Jm^-2K^-4s^-1 .

The intensity of radiation emitted by the sun has its maximum value at a wavelength of 510 nm and that emitted by the North star has the maximum value at 350 nm. If these stars behave like black bodies, then the ratio of the surface temperatures of the sun and the north star is
