Consider a flat sheet of iron at 300 K does not receive any radiation from its surroundings. The metal is 10 cm x 10 cm x 0.1 cm; the heat capacity is 25 J/K mol; the density is 7.86 g/cm3 a) How many joules per second are lost by radiation initially? Assume that one flat side only radiates into space. b) After 20 minutes, what is the temperature of the metal plate?
At midday when a large construction site covered with black tarps is directly under the Sun, it receives 975 W of solar power per square meter of surface from the Sun. If this hot surface loses energy only by radiation back into the atmosphere, what is its equilibrium temperature (in K)? You may use an emissivity of e = 1 for a black surface.
Suppose a person is covered head to foot by wool clothing with an average thickness of d = 1.95 cm and is transferring energy by conduction through the clothing at the rate of Q / Δt = 45 W.       What is the temperature difference, in terms of the quantities given in the problem statement, across the clothing? Denote the surface area of the wool by A and the thermal conductivity by k.
