The distance required to be from the sun to die from its heat would depend on factors such as exposure duration, protective measures, and individual susceptibility. Typically, the intense heat and radiation from the sun would be lethal if you were within a few million kilometers of its surface without any protection.

Why dark surfaces are good absorbers of heat and shiny surfaces are poor absorbers of heat?

If you are talking in terms of the suns heat being absorbed by the surfaces then I have the answer. Shiny surfaces naturally deflect the suns rays where as dark surfaces are easy conductors of heat as they naturally catch the suns rays. You will notice with leather or print on a shirt that it gets hot because the rays have nowhere to go. A shiny surface will just deflect it back.


What energy produces suns heat and light?

The energy produced by the fusion of hydrogen atoms into helium in the sun's core is what generates the heat and light emitted by the sun. This process releases energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation, which includes visible light and heat.


What heat transfer method is used to capture the suns energy?

Solar energy is primarily captured using radiation heat transfer. Solar panels are designed to absorb sunlight and convert it into electricity or heat through the process of photovoltaics or solar thermal technology.


When the suns energy is used to heat a building?

This process is typically called solar heating or passive solar heating. Solar panels or windows are used to capture sunlight and convert it into heat energy, which is then used to warm up the building through a system of heat distribution such as radiant flooring or forced-air systems. This is a sustainable and environmentally friendly way to heat buildings.


What happens to temperature of the house as the suns radiant energy touches it?

The temperature of the house increases as the sun's radiant energy touches it. This is because the house absorbs the energy from the sun, converting it into heat.
