Question 86

Multiple Choice

A giant star radiates energy at the rate of 3.0×1030 W3.0 \times 10 ^ { 30 } \mathrm {~W} and its surface temperature has been measured to be 3000 K. Assuming that it is a perfect emitter, what is the radius 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)


A) 7.8×1010 m7.8 \times 10 ^ { 10 } \mathrm {~m}
B) 1.9×1011 m1.9 \times 10 ^ { 11 } \mathrm {~m}
C) 2.3×1011 m2.3 \times 10 ^ { 11 } \mathrm {~m}
D) 1.4×1010 m1.4 \times 10 ^ { 10 } \mathrm {~m}
E) 8.7×1010 m8.7 \times 10 ^ { 10 } \mathrm {~m}
