Calculate the black body temperature of ...

Calculate the black body temperature of the sun from th e following data :- Stefan's constant = `5.7xx10^(-8) Wm^(-2)K^(-4)` . Solar constant = `1500 W//M^(2)`. Radius of the sun = `7xx10^(8)`m . Distance between sun and earth = `1.5xx10^(11) m`.

To calculate the black body temperature of the sun, we can use the Stefan-Boltzmann law, which relates the power radiated by a black body to its temperature. The formula we will use is: \[ T = \left( \frac{R}{d} \right)^{1/2} \left( \frac{S}{\sigma} \right)^{1/4} \] Where: - \( T \) is the temperature of the black body (the sun in this case), ...
