Determine temperature of the surface of the spacecraft


The outer surface of a spacecraft has an emissivity of 0.8 and an absorptivity of 0.3 for solar radiation. If solar radiation is incident on the spacecraft at a rate of 1000 W/m2, determine the temperature of the surface of the spacecraft when the radiation emitted equals the solar energy. Assume deep space temperature to be 2K.
