- The surface temperature of the Sun is 5000℃.a) Find the magnitude of the peak wavelength of radiation emitted from the Sun’s surface. b) Which color of the visible spectrum does the peak emitted wavelength correspond to?arrow_forwardTo measure temperatures, physicists often use the variation of intensity of EM radiation emitted by an object. The wavelength at which the intensity is greatest is given by the equation: λmaxT = 0.2898 cm.K where λmax is the wavelength of greatest intensity and T is the temperature of the object in kelvins. In 1965, microwave radiation peaking at λmax = 0.107 cm was discovered coming in all directions from space. To what temperature, in a) K b) °C c) °F, does this wavelength correspond?arrow_forwardA blackbody is a substance that absorbs radiation of all wavelengths and radiates in a continuous spectrum at all wavelengths. It is given the name blackbody because an object that absorbs light at all wavelengths appears black to the human eye. By the end of the 19th century, several properties of blackbody radiation had been established. First, the total intensity I (the average rate of radiation of energy per unit surface area) emitted from a blackbody was shown to be proportional to the fourth power of its temperature: I=oT¹ This is called the Stefan-Boltzmann law for a blackbody. The constant of proportionality o is known as the Stefan-Boltzmann constant and was determined to be o = 5.67 x 10-8 W/(m². K¹). It had also been discovered that the wavelength at which the radiation intensity was maximum varied inversely with temperature. This result, known as the Wien displacement law, is written AmT = 2.90 x 10-³ m. K. where Am is the wavelength with the greatest radiated intensity. ✓…arrow_forward
- You are using a radiometer to observe the thermal radi- ation from an object that is heated to maintain its tem- perature at 1278 K. The radiometer records radiation in a wavelength interval of 12.6 nm.

- A photon has an energy of 2.44x10^-22 J. What is its frequency?arrow_forwardFor years, exposure to ultra-violet radiation from prolonged time in the sun has been the major identified cause of skin cancer. New research is showing that ultra-violet is not the only type of radiation from the sun that can increase the risk of skin cancer. Rates of skin cancer among pilots are twice that of non-pilots, but the glass used in planes blocks most the ultra-violet radiation. Pilots are also exposed to x-rays from the sun during flight. The x-rays that pilots are exposed to in one day of work are equivalent to a chest x-ray. Although getting an x-ray for medical reasons is believed to be safe, researchers believe that the frequent exposer that pilots experience increases their risk for skin cancer.
