What would be the wavelength of a 50 gram golf ball traveling at 40 meters/second? Is this large enough to be observable?
If the human body is well approximated by a black body with tem- perature T = 310◦ K (98.6◦ F). At what wavelength (λ) do we emit the most energy (λmax)? How much energy per area (flux) do we emit? Remember the value of the Stefan-Boltzmann constant is σ = 5.67 × 10−5erg/(cm2K4s1). What kind of radiation (region of the electromagnetic spectrum) do we emit most of?
What is the frequnency of an X-ray with lambda = 200 picometers?
