The intensity of the radiation from the Sun measured on Earth is 1360 W/m2 and frequency is f = 60 MHz. The distance between the

Earth and the Sun is 1.5 x 1011 m. a) Assuming it radiates uniformly in all directions what is the total power output of the Sun?b) If the frequency increases by 1 MHz what would be the relative (percentage) change in the power output? c) For frequency in b) what is the intensity of the radiation from the Sun measured on Mars? Note that Mars is 60% farther from the Sun than the Earth is.

Answer: (a) power output = 3.85×10²⁶W

(b). There is no relative change in power as it is independent from frequency

(c). 590 W/m²

Explanation:

given Radius between earth and sun to be = 1.50 × 10¹¹m

Intensity of the radiation from the sun measured on earth to be = 1360 W/m²

Frequency = 60 MHz

(a). surface area A of the sun on earth is = 4πR²

substituting value of R;

A = 4π(.50 × 10¹¹)² = 2.863 10²³×m²

A = 2.863 10²³×m²

now to get the power output of the sun we have;

<em>P </em>sun = <em>I </em><em>sun-earth </em><em>A </em><em>sun-earth</em>

where A = 2.863 10²³×m², and <em>I </em> is 1360 W/m²

<em>P </em>sun =  2.863 10²³ × 1360

<em>P </em>sun = 3.85×10²⁶W

(c). surface area A of the sun on mars is = 4πR²

now we substitute value of 2.28 ×10¹¹ for R sun-mars, we have

A sun-mars = 4π(2.28× 10¹¹)²

A sun-mars = 6.53 × 10²³m²

now to calculate the intensity of the sun;

<em>I </em><em>sun-mars = </em><em>P </em>sun / A sun-mars

where <em>P </em>sun = 3.85×10²⁶W and A sun-mars = 6.53 × 10²³m²

<em>I </em><em>sun-mars =  </em>3.85×10²⁶W / 6.53 × 10²³m²

<em>I </em><em>sun-mars = </em>589.6 ≈ 590 W/m²

<em>I </em><em>sun-mars = </em>590 W/m²

Marta_Voda [28]
A place that is cold because of an increase in altitude has a mountain area climate or simply, mountain climate. An area that is high in altitude typically has a colder temperature because of the increased amount of rainfall they have. Also, air tends to cool as it rises in temperature.
