Dimensional analysis can provide insight into Stefan-Boltzmann's law for the radiation from a black body. According to this law the intensity of radiation, in units of J s-' m-², from a body at temperature Tis 1 = GT*, where e is Stefan-Boltzmann's constant. Because black-body radiation can be considered to be a gas of photons, i.e. quantum particles which move with velocity e with typical energies of the order of kT, the intensity I is a function of h, c and kT. Use dimensional analysis to confirm that Iis proportional to 7 and find the dependence of a on h and c.arrow_forward
- 2. Can we Estimate the Solar Constant? A result from theoretical physics, known as the Stefan-Boltzmann law, states that the total power radiated by a blackbody at temperature T (K) per unit surface area is given by E=GT* where E is radiated power per unit surface area of the blackbody and o is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant equal to 5.67 x 10* Wm?K*. Let's assume that the sun is a perfect blackbody at T= 5783 K and apply the laws of energy conservation to estimate the average incidence of solar energy [W/m] arriving at the top of Earth's atmosphere (we call that incident energy the solar constant). Compare your calculated estimate of the solar constant to that commonly used to model the sun. Assuming the following constants: d = 1.39e9 m=Diameter of the sun de = 1.27e7 m = Diameter of the earth Res = 1.49el1 m = Mean earth-to-sun distance (HINT: use this distance as the radius of a sphere centered on the sun).arrow_forwardIn the photoelectric effect experiment, what type of energy process is occurring?

The main process by which this happens, called the proton-proton chain, goes as follows: • Two protons come together to create deuterium, a positron, a neutrino, and energy: p + p→D+e++v+ energy • The deuterium fuses with another proton to make ³He: D + p→→ ³He + energy • Fianlly, 4He is produced by fusing two ³He nuclei together: ³He + 3 He→ 4He+p+p+ energy What is the total energy released during the creation of one 4He nucleus? Give your answer in MeV, and remember that you need to make two ³He nuclei in the process. Be sure to use at least five significant figures for your masses, but your final answer should have three or four sig figs.

- (a) Calculate the power per square meter reaching Earth's upper atmosphere from the Sun. (Take the power output of the Sun to be 4.001026 W.) (b) Part of this is absorbed and reflected by the atmosphere, so that a maximum of 1.30 kW/m2 reaches Earth's surface. Calculate the area in km 2 of solar energy collectors needed to replace an electric power plant that generates 750 MW if the collectors convert an average of 2.00% of the maximum power into electricity. (This small conversion efficiency is due to the devices themselves, and the fact that the sun is directly overhead only briefly.) With the same assumptions, what area would be needed to meet the United States' energy needs (1.051020J) ? Australia's energy needs (5.41018J) ? China's energy needs (6.31019J) ?
