Answer:

About 16 times the energy of the second.

Explanation:

This can be explained thanks to the Stefan-Boltzmann law, which relates temperature directly to the amount of energy released by an object.

With this law in mind, the total energy radiated during 1 second from 1 square meter of any object, equals <em>a constant </em>(5.670374419 × 10−8 watt per meter2 per K4) times the temperature raised to the fourth power.  the equation is:

E = σT4

Since the first star is twice as hot as the second, then the star won't produce twice the energy, but 16 times the energy due to the Stefan-Boltzmann constant. It's also important to know that this law only applies to blackbodies.

Answer:

Debt relief is when debts are either reorganised to make them more manageable, or reduced. Microfinance loans are when money is lent to LICs to help them to develop. These are often small loans with reasonable interest rates. They are available to people and businesses who may normally struggle to get credit.
