At midday when a black paved airport runway is directly under the Sun, it receives 800 W of solar power per square meter of surface from the Sun. If this hot surface loses energy only by radiation back into the atmosphere, what is its equilibrium temperature (in K)? You may use an emissivity of e = 1 for a black surface
