Question 88

Multiple Choice

The radius of a star is 6.95×108 m6.95 \times 10 ^ { 8 } \mathrm {~m} and its rate of radiation has been measured to be 5.32×10265.32 \times 10 ^ { 26 } W. Assuming that it is a perfect emitter, what is the temperature of the surface of this star? (σ=( \sigma = 5.67×108 W/m2K4) \left. 5.67 \times 10 ^ { - 8 } \mathrm {~W} / \mathrm { m } ^ { 2 } \cdot \mathrm { K } ^ { 4 } \right)
