You know that a star’s apparent brightness depends on its distance from the earth and also on the fraction of its radiated energy that is in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum. But, as a first step, you search the Internet for information on the surface temperatures and radii of some selected stars so that you can calculate their total radiated power. You find the data given in the table. The radius is given in units of the radius of the sun, Rsun = 6.96 * 108 m. The surface temperature is the effective temperature that gives the measured photon luminosity of the star if the star is assumed to radiate as an ideal blackbody. The photon luminosity is the power emitted in the form of photons. (a) Which star in the table has the greatest radiated power? (b) For which of these stars, if any, is the peak wavelength lm in the visible range (380–750 nm)? (c) The sun has a total radiated power of 3.85…arrow_forward
