Calculate the temperature of the sun

Reference no: EM13498515

The accepted value for the suns intensity at the earth is measured on an area with its normal along the suns "ray". This value is called the solar constant and is equal to 1346W/m^2. Calculate the temperature of the sun. the sun-earth distance is 1.5 x 10^8 km and the radius of the sun is 7.0 x 10^5 km.
