total luminous flux from the sun
Solution:
Here, illuminance (I) = 1.5 x 10° lumen/m²,
Distance (T) = 1.5 x 10 km =1.5 x 108 m
Let L be the luminous intensity of the sun, then
or, L= TXT =1.5 x 10°x (1.5 x 108)2
= 3.375 x 102 cd.
Total luminous flux from the sun = 410 I
= 41 x 3.375 x 1021 = 4.24 x 1022 /m
Example 3. If a source has luminous intensity of 400 cd, (a) how much
luminous flux is emitted by the source? (b) what is the illuminance at a point
on the table which is 1.6 m directly below the source?
Solution:
Here, Luminous intensity (L) = 400 cd

3.82746e+26 watts

Explanation:

There are two ways to solve this problem. One way is to use the equation

L = 4πσR²T⁴

where

L = the sun's bolometric (all-spectrum) luminous power

σ = 5.670374419e-8 W m⁻² K⁻⁴ = the Stefan-Boltzmann constant

R = 6.957e+8 meters = the sun's radius

T = 5771.8 K = the sun's effective temperature

You find that

L = 3.82746e+26 watts

The other way to solve the problem is to use the Planck integral for radiant flux.

L = 4π²R ∫(v₁,v₂) 2hv³/{c² exp[hv/(kT)]−1} dv

where

h = 6.62607015e-34 J sec

c = 299792458 m sec⁻¹

k = 1.380649e-23 J K⁻¹

v₁ = 0 = frequency band lower bound, in Hz

v₂ = ∞ = frequency band upper bound, in Hz

You find, once again, that

L = 3.82746e+26 watts

The advantage of using the Planck integral becomes clear when you want to calculate the sun's luminous power only in a specific band, rather than across the entire spectrum. For example, if we do the calculation again, except that we use

v₁ = 4.1e+14 = frequency band lower bound, in Hz

v₂ = 7.7e+14 Hz = frequency band upper bound, in Hz

restricting ourselves to the visible spectrum. We find that

L (visible) = 1.56799e+26 watts

So the fraction of the sun's luminosity that is in the visible spectrum is

L (visible) / L = 0.4096686

Answer from: Quest

Is a vector quantity that refers to "the rate at which an object changes its position." imagine a person moving rapidly - one step forward and one step back - always returning to the original starting position. while this might result in a frenzy of activity, it would result in a zero velocity. because the person always returns to the original position, the motion would never result in a change in position. since velocity is defined as the rate at which the position changes, this motion results in zero velocity. if a person in motion wishes to maximize their velocity, then that person must make every effort to maximize the amount that they are displaced from their original position. every step must go into moving that person further from where he or she started. for certain, the person should never change directions and begin to return to the starting position.

Scientists use laser range-finding to measure the distance to the moon with great accuracy. a brief laser pulse is fired at the moon, then the time interval is measured until the "echo" is seen by a telescope. a laser beam spreads out as it travels because it diffracts through a circular exit as it leaves the laser. in order for the reflected light to be bright enough to detect, the laser spot on the moon must be no more than 1.0 km in diameter. staying within this diameter is accomplished by using a special large-diameter laser. part a if λ = 540nm , what is the minimum diameter of the circular opening from which the laser beam emerges? the earth-moon distance is 384,000 km. express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

It is reasonable to assume that the bulk modulus of blood is about the same as that of water (2.2 gpa). as one goes deeper and deeper in the ocean, the pressure increases by 10000 pa for every meter below the surface. if a diver goes down 80.0 m in the ocean, by how much does each cubic centimeter of her blood change in volume? give the answer in cubic centimeters (actually one cubic centimeter equals one milliliter).
