As the very first rudiment of climatology, estimate the temperature of Earth. Assume it is a perfect sphere and its temperature is uniform. Ignore the greenhouse effect. Thermal radiation from the Sun has an intensity (the "solar constant" S) of about 1370 W/m2 at the radius of Earth's orbit. (a) Assuming the Sun's rays are parallel, what area must S be multiplied by to get the total radiation intercepted by Earth? It will be easiest to answer in tens of Earth's radius, R. (b) Assume that Earth reflects about 30% of the solar energy it intercepts. In other words, Earth has an albedo with a value of A=0.3 . In terms of S, and R, what is the rate at which Earth absorbs energy from the Sun? (c) Find the temperature at which Earth radiates energy at the same rate. Assume that at the infrared wavelengths where it radiates, the emissivity e is 1. Does your result show that the greenhouse effect is important? (d) How does your answer depend on the area of Earth?
A constant-volume gas thermometer contains a fixed amount of gas. What property of the gas is measured to indicate its temperature?
Check Your Understanding If you consider a very small object, such as a grain of pollen, in a gas, then the number of molecules striking its surface would also be relatively small. Would you expect the grain of pollen to experience any fluctuations in pressure due to statistical fluctuations in the number of gas molecules striking it in a given amount of time?
Repeat the preceding problem, assuming the water is in a glass beaker with a mass of 0.200 kg, which in tum is in a calorimeter. The beaker is initially at the same temperature as the water. Before doing the problem, should the answer be higher or lower than the preceding answer? Comparing the mass and specific heat of the beaker to those of the water, do you think the beaker will make much difference?
Calculate the temperature at which a fog with droplet 300 nm in diameter will evaporate. What should be the droplet size of a fog that would disappear at room temperature(celcius degree)? Assume that the interfacial tension of water remains constant at 72 mN/m. The enthalpy of evaporation of water is 42 kJ/mol.
In a student experiment, a constant-volume gas thermometer is calibrated in dry ice (-78.5°C) and in boiling ethyl alcohol (78.0°C). The separate pressures are 0.900 atm and 1.635 atm. (a) What value of absolute zero in degrees Celsius does the calibration yield? What pressures would be found at (b) the freezing and (c) boiling points of water? Hint : Use the linear relationship P = A + BT, where A and B are constants.

Estimate the rate at which heat can be conducted from theinterior of the body to the surface. As a model, assume thatthe thickness of tissue is 4.0 cm, that the skin is at 34°Cand the interior at 37°C, and that the surface area is 1.5m2Compare this to the measured value of about 230 W thatmust be dissipated by a person working lightly. This clearlyshows the necessity of convective cooling by the blood
