Problem 13.4
It has been reported that an explosion of nuclear fission
produces a power e radiated energy of 1×10^16
Watts. The measurement was made at a distance of
10 Km from the explosion.
a) Calculate the temperature reached at the explosion site
considering a 1cm sphere placed on that site
b) What was the radiation flow (power-incident per unit area)
measured?
c) A sphere placed at the site of the explosion, at what maximum
wavelength would it have radiated?
