This is fairly rivaling the sun,
for the temperature at the solar

about one sixty-thousandths Of

When all due allowance is
made for the loss suffered by the
sunlight in traversing the atmos.

one candle at one meter distance
illuminates a surface only
about one seventy-thousandths as
strongly as sunshine. This AZ
Prof. Young's estimate.
But the intensity Of light ON a

given surface varies inversely
with the square of the distance,
and the suns distance is 10000
100000 meters against the one

what the candlepower Of the sun
is then we must square 100000
100000 and multiply the product
by 10000. This gives up, for the

If the lamp were removed TO q

should equal that of the sunlight.
But we must always remember
the enormous distance Of the sun
in making comparisons. Put the
sun a thousand times further
