absorption of radiant energy by different colors

How can I incorporate my findings while using the Stefan-Boltzmann law in everyday life

Marnus1999,

Thank you for your question. To provide a better answer, it would help if you provided your findings from any experiments. That being said, radiation is the transfer of energy by emission of electromagnetic waves carring energy away from the emitting object. The relationship governing the net radiation from hot objects is called the Stefan-Boltzmann law. In everyday life, this relationship governs many applications involving heat transfer such as heating and air conditioning units.

the light colours like yellow green and blue power output is a lot less than red and orange . can i use it for example to explain why plants are green? thanks for previous reply!
