Part A The sun's intensity at the distance of the earth is 1370 W/m² 30% of this energy is reflected by water and clouds; 70% is absorbed. What would be the earth's average temperature (in °C) if the earth had no atmosphere? The emissivity of the surface is very close to 1. (The actual average temperature of the earth, about 15 °C, is higher than your calculation because of the greenhouse effect.) Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. PA ALL ? IE Value Units
