A. Write a mathematical repressentation of the energy balance equation for the Earth
B. Solve your energy balance equation for the temperature of Earth, also commonly called the "effective" radiating temperature of the Earth. Convert your answer to farenheit and celsius.
C. The actual value for the temperature of Earth is close to 60 degrees farenheit. The value you computed in part B should be much lower than 60 degrees farenheit. The reason that this simple energy balance model produces a temperature of Earth that is lower than reality is because the Earth's surface not only absorbs energy from the sun but from a second source: the Earth's atmosphere. What is the effect called?
