Question
Lab Exercise 2: Blackbody Radiation and Radiative Equilibrium 100 points total. 3 points per question, except the last one is 4 points For this lab, you will first use an interactive online simulator of blackbody radiation to study the relationship between the temperature of an object and the amount and type of electromagnetic (EM) radiation that it emits. Then, you will use another simulator to study the effect of planetary albedo, distance from the sun, and surface temperature orn the energy budget of a planet. Our overall goal is to explain the relationship between the radiative equilibrium temperature of a planet and these different variables Directions: Submit your answers as a DOC or an uploaded PDF (preferable). Please number your answers. Include units for all numerical values (that have units). To make it easier to type, you can express exponents using the symbol. For example, 5.67 x 10A- 8 W mA 2 KA-4. Use complete sentences for "Why" and "Explain"-type questions Please complete the readings and quiz for the week before you do this assignment, so that you have had practice with some of the equations. I recommend keeping Lectures 2-3 and 2-4 handy, since you will be referring to them Be sure to include units for all valuesExplanation / Answer
13. The peak emission of Betelgeuse will at 850 nm.
14. The simulator shows a chocolate colour of the star.
15. The peak emission of the star will be at 100 nm.
16. The star has blue colour.
