To determine

Does the maximum number of sunspots occur in the cycle at the beginning; at the middle; or at the end of the sunspot cycle.

Is that time reflected in the Maunder butterfly diagram in the cycle.

How does energy makes its way from the nuclear core of the Sun to its atmosphere?

If a sunspot has a temperature of 4,270 K and the average solar photosphere has a temperature of 5,780 K, how many times more energy is emitted in 1 second from a square meter of the photosphere compared to a square meter of the sunspot? (Hint: Use the Stefan-Boltzmann law,  E = σT4 (J/s/m2)  where E is the energy, σ is a proportionality constant equal to 5.67 ✕ 10−8 J/s/m2/K4, and T is the temperature in kelvins.)
Which of the following layers of the Sun can be seen with some type of telescope? Consider all forms of light, but do not consider neutrinos or other particles. (Give ALL correct answers in alphabetical order, i.e., B, AC, BCD...)A) Corona.B) Photosphere.C) Radiation Zone.D) Chromosphere.E) Convection Zone.F) Core.
