(a) Deter-nine the power of radiation from the Sun by noting that the intensity of the radiation at the distance of Earth is 1370 W/m2. Hint: That intensity will be found everywhere on a spherical surface with radius equal to that of Earth's orbit. (b) Assuring that the Sun's temperature is 5780 K and that its emissivity is 1, find its radius.
Verify the normalization equation 0f(v)dv=1 In doing the integral, first make substitution u=m2kBTv=vvp. This "scaling" transformation gives you all features of the answer except for the integral, which is a dimensionless numerical factor. You'll need the formula 0x2e x 2dx= 4 to find the numerical factor and verify the normalization.`
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 terms of Earth’s radius, R.
Consider a surface at a uniform temperature of 800 K. Determine the maximum rate of thermal radiation that can be emitted by this surface, in W/m2.
Consider the 5-m * 5-m * 5-m cubical furnace shown in Fig. 21–47, whose surfaces closely approximate black surfaces. The base, top, and side surfaces of the furnace are maintained at uniform temperatures of 800 K, 1500 K, and 500 K, respectively. Determine (a) the net rate of radiation heat transfer between the base and the side surfaces, (b) the net rate of radiation heat transfer between the base and the top surface, and (c) the net radiation heat transfer from the base surface.
A person driving to work saw his neighbor’s house with a broken front door. He called 911 to alert the police and have it checked. A crime detective then arrived at 9:00 AM at the house and discovered a dead body in the master’s bedroom. He evaluated the temperature of the body, and the result is 80.0 ℉. Afterwards, police started checking for a possible murder angle through evidence collection. One hour later, the temperature of the body is checked again, and the reading is 75.0 ℉. If the room temperature is 70-degree F, evaluate the time for which the possible murder case took place. Assume a normal body temperature of 98.6 ℉.
A digital system has been developed to measure temperatures in therange -20˚C to 100˚C. If the accuracy of the system is such that themaximum number of bits that it can represent is 10 bits, and the actualtemperature being read is 37˚C, what is the closest possible value thatthe system could represent? Interprete your results.
If the temperature of the surface of the object is 690.8 oF , then calculate its value in K.
A certain material has a thickness of 30 cm and a thermal conductivity of 0.04 W/m・ ◦C. At a particular instant in time, the temperature distribution with x, the distance from the left face, is T =150x2 −30x, where x is in meters. Calculate the heat-flow rates at x = 20 cm.
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?
The goal in this problem is to find the growth of an ice layer as a function of time. Call the thickness of the ice layer L. (a) Derive an equation for dL/dt in terms of L , the temperature T above the ice, and the properties of ice (which can leave in symbolic form instead of substituting the numbers). (b) Solve this differential equation assuming that at t=0 , you have L=0 . If you have studied differential equations, you will know a technique for solving equations of this type: manipulate the equation to get dL/dt multiplied by a (very simple) function of L on one side, and integrate both sides with respect to time. Alternatively, you may be able to use your knowledge of the derivatives of various functions to guess the solution, which has a simple dependence on t. (c) Will the water eventually freeze to the bottom of the flask?
Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps and partly due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. To get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length of a column of water 1.00 km high for a temperature increase of 1.00 C. Assume the column is not free to expand sideways. As a model of the ocean, that is a reasonable approximation, as only parts of the ocean very close to the surface can expand sideways onto land, and only to a limited degree. As another approximation, neglect the fact that ocean wan-ling is not uniform with depth.
