#4 only The next four questions use this description.Our Sun has a peak emission wavelength of about 500 nm and a radius of about 700,000 km. Yourdark-adapted eye has a pupil diameter of about 7 mm and can detect light intensity down to about1.5 x 10-11 W/m². Assume the emissivity of the Sun is equal to 1.First, given these numbers, what is the surface temperature of the Sun in Kelvin to 3 significantdigits?5,796Question 2What is the power output of the Sun in moles of watts? (in other words, take the number of wattsand divide it by Avogadro's number)654Question 3Assuming that all of the Sun's power is given off as 500 nm photons*, how many photons are givenoff by the Sun every second? Report your answer to the nearest power of 10 (e.g. if you got 7 x 1024,give your answer as 25).* -- which as we know / will know is not exactly true.45Question 4Given these values and the properties of the eye, from how far away can you see (detect) the Sun?Give your answer in units of 'parsecs' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parsec) to 2 significant digits. Aparsec is, roughly, the distance between our Sun and the closest star, Alpha Centauri.

In this problem, it is asking from how much distance we can see the sun (Only question 4).

Given these values and the properties of the eye, from how far away can you see (detect) the Sun? Give your answer in units of 'parsecs' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parsec) to 2 significant digits. A parsec is, roughly, the distance between our Sun and the closest star, Alpha Centauri.

Stellar evolution

We may see thousands of stars in the dark sky. Our universe consists of billions of stars. Stars may appear tiny to us but they are huge balls of gasses. Sun is a star of average size. Some stars are even a thousand times larger than the sun. The stars do not exist forever they have a certain lifetime. The life span of the sun is about 10 billion years. The star undergoes various changes during its lifetime, this process is called stellar evolution. The structure of the sun-like star is shown below.

Red Shift

It is an astronomical phenomenon. In this phenomenon, increase in wavelength with corresponding decrease in photon energy and frequency of radiation of light. It is the displacement of spectrum of any kind of astronomical object to the longer wavelengths (red) side.
