Zwever schreef op 17 maart 2005 om 21:52:was dat niet iets met dat het licht in de hemel zo fel is als 50 zonnen bij elkaar en de maximum temperatuur van zwavel lager licht dan wat die 50 zonnen bij elkaar produceren?
Pcies, die is het ... ff zoeken hoor ...
Thermodynamics according to Isaiah The temperature of Heaven can be rather accurately computed. Our
authority is the Bible, Isaiah 30:26, describing Heaven: Moreover, the
light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun and the light of the
sun shall be sevenfold as the light of seven days. Thus, Heaven
receives from the moon as much radiation as the Earth does from the sun, and in
addition seven times seven (forty-nine) times as much as the Earth does
from the sun, or 50 times in all. The light we receive from the moon is
1/10,000 of the light we receive from the sun, so we can ignore that. The radiation
falling on Heaven will heat it to the point where the heat lost by radiation is
just equal to the heat received by radiation, i.e., Heaven loses 50
times as much heat as the Earth by radiation. Using the
Stephan-Boltzmann fourth power law for radiation, we have (H/E)4 = 50 where E is the absolute temperature of the Earth, 300 K (27 C). This gives H, the absolute
temperature of Heaven, as 798 K (525 C)! (For old-fashioned Americans,
that's close to 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit. Your kitchen oven won't get
nearly that hot.) The exact temperature of Hell cannot be computed.
However, Revelation 21:8 says: But the fearful and unbelieving... shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone. A lake of molten brimstone
(or sulfur) means that its temperature must be at or below the boiling
point, 444.6 C (above that point, it would be a vapor, not a lake). We
have, then, that Heaven, at 525 C, is hotter than Hell, at less than 445 C.
So who says that the Bible has no accurate and useful scientific data?
