What is the temperature of the Sun (google for the answer)? What is the re-entry temperature of the Space Shuttle (google for the answer)? Why don’t you burn up at the reentry temperature of 17318.5K for this Mach 20 flow? Why do you think that the body should actually re-enter the Earth's atmosphere in the opposite direction. (ie.. blunt/flat surface first.)
The number density of air in a child's balloon is roughly the same as sea level air, 1019 particles/cm3. If the balloon is now 18 cm in diameter, to what diameter (in km) would it need to expand to make the gas inside have the same number density as the ISM, about 1 particle/cm3?

- The greenhouse effect can be explained easily if you understand the laws of blackbody radiation. A greenhouse gas blocks the transmission of infrared light. Given that the incoming light to Earth is sunlight with a characteristic temperature of 5800 K (which peaks in the visible part of the spectrum) and the outgoing light from Earth has a characteristic temperature of about 300 K (which peaks in the infrared part of the spectrum), explain how greenhouse gases cause Earth to warm up. As part of your answer, discuss that greenhouse gases block both incoming and outgoing infrared light. Explain why these two effects don’t simply cancel each other, leading to no net temperature change.arrow_forwardWhy does helium fusion require a higher temperature than hydrogen fusion?arrow_forwardWHAT IS RADIATOR? how that system works; what processes are involved in its processes; and what are its benefits to modern society.
