The Moon receives all of its energy in the form of radiation from the Sun. By what process or processes does it lose heat? How do you know?
The moon also looses heat energy as it gained from the sun. Since we know that from all three mode of heat transfer( conduction, convection, and radiation) radiation doesn't require medium to transfer heat. Since on moon surrounding is nearly vacuum so the moon loss heat by radiation.

The Earth receives energy from the Sun at the rate of 1.4 kW/m . A sister planet orbits a star at the same distance as the Earth’s distance from the Sun. If the sister planet’s star has a temperature 2.1 times that of the Sun’s temperature, what is the rate that the sister planet receives energy from its sun?
Problem 4: Radiation from the Sun The intensity of the radiation from the Sun is 1360 W/m2 and frequency is f60 MHz. The distance between the Earth and the Sun is 1.5 x 1011m 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 change in the power output?
Answer all three parts The sun transfers energy to the earth by radiation at a rate of approximately 1.00 kW per square meter of surface. Part A If this energy could be collected and converted to electrical energy with 26 % efficiency how large an area (in square kilometers) would be required to collect the electrical energy used by the United States? (1.0×1019 joules per year).
Warm Up The surface of the Earth receives approximately 1000 W/m2 (Watts per square meter) of energy from the Sun. This number rises to about 1386 W/m2 in the upper atmosphere (r 6.4 x 106 m) The sun is 1 AU (1.496 x 1011 m) away Over what area is the Sun's energy spread at the Earth's distance? How much power is the Sun releasing? Warm Up The surface of the Earth receives approximately 1000 W/m2 (Watts per square meter)...
se 4: Phases of the Moon Everyone has seen the Moon, which is a natural satellite that orbits the Earth. As the Moon rotates around the Earth it is exposed to various amounts of light from the Sun. The reason for this is simple, the Moon at night because it is reflecting light produced by the Sun and because the Earth is slightly out of the direct line of sight between the Moon and Sun. If it were not, a...
Calculate the average photon energy of the radiation emitted from the sun (e.g. a 5780K blackbody radiator). Calculate the average photon energy emitted from earth (e.g. a 300K blackbody radiator). Provide each answer in eV.
The intensity of radiation reaching the earth from the sun is 1350 W/m2. The earth's radius is 6.4 ´ 106 m. How big a force does this radiation exert on the earth? (Assume it is all absorbed.)
In its core the Sun changed, hydrogen into helium and produces energy by this nuclear fusion process. Each hydrogen atom has a positively charged center (a proton) and a negatively charged electron that exists around the periphery of the atom. The heat of the Sun pulls the electrons off the hydrogen atoms, leaving positively charged protons behind. To make energy the sun has to force these positively charged particles very close together so that a very strong but short range...
need help with part b Problem 4: Radiation from the Sun The intensity of the radiation from the Sun is 1360 W/m2 and frequency is f = 60MHz The distance between the Earth and the Sun is 1.5 x 10 เร็3.1. 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 change in the power output?
10a - Our Sun Is the core of the sun solid, liquid or gas? How do we know this? How does the Sun make energy? Do all stars do this?
