Chapter 14, Problem 2SL(choose chapter or problem)
(a) Using the solar constant, estimate the rate at which the whole Earth receives energy from the Sun. (b) Assume the Earth radiates an equal amount back into space (that is, the Earth is in equilibrium). Then, assuming the Earth is a perfect emitter \((\epsilon=1.0)\), estimate its average surface temperature. [Hint: Discuss why you use area \(A=\pi r_{E}^{2}\) or \(A=4 \pi r_{E}^{2}\) in each part.]
