A white flying saucer made of aluminum is in outer space, and the sun is shining on the
top surface of it. It has a surface area of 1 m² per side. The absorptivity (a) for white
paint is 0.3 to 0.5 for solar radiation (H&H Tbl. 4.1), so a good assumption would be to
use the average of 0.4. The emissivity (ɛ) for white paint in the 0-38°C range is 0.9.
Incoming solar radiation intensity in outer space is 1353 W/m² (p. 12 in H&H). You may
assume that there is no conductive or convective heat loss from the plate, as it is almost a
vacuum in outer space.
Calculate the equilibrium temperature of the plate, based on the incoming solar radiation
and the outgoing radiation from the plate back to outer space.
