Give some everyday examples of the transport of heat by convection and by radiation.
On a hot dry day, evaporation from a lake has just enough heat transfer to balance the 1.00kW/m2 of incoming heat from the Sun. What mass of water evaporates in 1.00 h from each square meter? Explicitly show how you follow the steps in the Problem-Solving Strategies for the Effects of Heat Transfer.
When still air cools by radiating at night, it is unusual for temperatures to fall below the dew point. Explain why.
On cold, clear nights horses will sleep under the cover of large trees. How does this help them keep warm?
In winters, if is often warmer in San Francisco than in nearby Sacramento, 150 km inland. In summers, it is nearly always hotter in Sacramento. Explain how the bodies of water surrounding San Francisco moderate its extreme temperatures.
When a driver brakes an automobile, the friction between the brake drams and the brake shoes converts the cars kinetic energy to thermal energy. If a 1 500-kg automobile traveling at 30 m/s comes to a halt, how much does the temperature rise in each of the four 8.0-kg iron brake drums? (The specific heat of iron is 448J/kg C.)
At what net rate does heat radiate from a 275m2 black roof on a night when the roof’s temperature is 30.0C and the surrounding temperature is 15.0C ? The emissivity of the roof is 0.900.
When a driver brakes an automobile, the friction between the brake drams and the brake shoes converts the cars kinetic energy to thermal energy. If a 1 500-kg automobile traveling at 30 m/s comes to a halt, how much does the temperature rise in each of the four 8.0-kg iron brake drums? (The specific heat of iron is 448J/kg C.)
One easy way to reduce heating (and cooling) costs is to add extra insulation in the attic of a house. Suppose the house already had 15 cm of fiberglass insulation in the attic and in all the exterior surfaces. If you added an extra 8.0 cm of fiberglass to the attic, then by what percentage would the heating cost of the house drop? Take the single story house to be of dimensions 10 m by 15 m by 3.0 m. Ignore air infiltration and heat loss through windows and doors.
Are there any limits on the lowest and highest temperatures?
How does the latent heat of fusion of water help slow the decrease of air temperatures, perhaps preventing temperatures from falling significantly below 0C, in the vicinity of large bodies of water?
Compare the rate of heat conduction through a 13.0-cm-thick wall that has an area of 10.0m2 and a thermal conductivity twice that of glass wool with the rate of heat conduction through a window that is 0.750 cm thick and that has an area of 2.00m2, assuming the same temperature difference across each.
