3. The solar constant (Gsc) measured by a scientist is reported as 1385 W/m2. Assume the total hemispherical emissivity is 0.90 on the sun's surface. Estimate the surface temperature (in absolute temperature) on sun by using the following information: Diameter of sun 1.39 x 10° km Diameter of earth = 1.28 x 10* km Thickness of atmosphere on earth 40 km Average distance between sun and earth = 1.495 x 108 km Suggested reading materials: The chapters regarding "Fundamentals of Therma and "Radiation Exchange between Black Surfaces" in any Heat Transfer textbook. Radiation"
