For 3:00 P.M. solar time, on July 21, in Boise, ID, a 3 ft wide and 5 ft high window faces south- west. (Actually, it faces southwest all the time!) The inoperable window has a 2 in. wide alu- minum frame with a thermal break utilizing metal spacers. The glazing system is 21c in Table 7-3. There is no interior or exterior shading. Calculate the total solar heat gain, using the sim- plified approach.

You have scored a great internship with NASA, working on planning for an upcoming mission to Mars. The transfer orbit to Mars will last for several months and will require reclamation of the oxygen in the carbon dioxide exhaled by the crew. In one method of reclamation, 1.00 mol of carbon dioxide produces 1.00 mol of oxygen and 1.00 mol of methane as a byproduct. The methane is stored in a tank under pressure and is available to control the orientation of the spacecraft by controlled venting. A single astronaut exhales 1.09 kg of carbon dioxide each day. If the methanegenerated in the respiration recycling of three astronauts during one week of flight is stored in an originally empty 150-L tank at -45.0°C, what is the final pressure in the tank?

Imagine that a spacecraft has landed on Mercury and is transmitting radio signals to Earth at a wavelength of 10.000 cm. When Mercury is seen from Earth in the evening sky, at its greatest angular distance east of the Sun, it is moving toward Earth at its maximum possible relative speed of 47.9 km/s. To what wavelength must you tune your radio telescope to detect the signals? (Hint: Use the Doppler formula in Reasoning with Numbers 6-2.)
