The hot glowing surfaces of stars emit energy in the form


The hot glowing surfaces of stars emit energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation. It is a good approximation to assume e=1 for these surfaces.

a) Find the radius of the star (assumed to be spherical) Rigel, the bright blue star in the constellation Orion, that radiates energy at a rate of and has surface temperature 11000.

b) Find the radius of the star (assumed to be spherical) Procyon B (only visible using a telescope), that radiates energy at a rate of and has surface temperature 10000.
