The energy reveived from the sun by the earth and surrounding atmosphere is 2 cal`cm^(-2)` `min^(-1)` on a surface normal to the rays of sun. Q. What is the total energy radiated, in J `min^(-1)`, by the sun to the universe? Distance of the sun from the earth is `1.49xx10^(11)`m.A. `2.3444xx10^(28)J"min"^(-1)`B. `2.33xx10^(24)J"min"^(-1)`C. `2.34xx10^(20)J"min"^(-1)`D. none of these |

Answer» Correct Answer - A The area of surface surrounding sun at a distance equal to earth distance `4pid^2` Energy raditad by sun (in J `"min"^(-1))` is `2xx4.2[4pi(1.49)^2xx10^(26)]`J`"min"^(-1)` `=2.3444xx10^(28)` J `"min"^(-1)` |
