Students have asked these similar questions
in a two-layer case model, if the offset reflection time from the bottom of the first layer is 300 ms, and the velocity of the top layer is 900 m/s what is the thickness of the top layer?
A 2 x 2 m flat plate solar collector for domestic hot water heating is shown in the figure. The incident solar radiation on the glass cover, which transmits 90% of the incident flux, is 750 W/m2. Water flows through the tubes soldered to the backside of the absorber plate, entering at a temperature of 25°C. The temperature of the glass cover is 27°C, and it radiates heat with an emissivity of 0.92 to the sky at –50°C. Additionally, the glass cover losses heat by convection to air at 20°C flowing over its surface at 30 km/h. Assume that the radiation heat transfer between the absorber plate and glass cover and the heat transfer through the back and sides of the collector is negligible.
If the mean temperature of Sun's surface 6000 K and λm of its radiation is 0.5 µm, what is the mean temperature of earth's surface for which m is 10.0 μm, according Wien's Displacement Law in Remote Sensing Concept?
