If you lie on the ground at night with no cover, you get cold rather quickly. Much of this is due to energy loss by radiation. At night in a dry climate, the temperature of the sky can drop to -40◦F. If you are lying on the ground with thin clothing that provides little insulation, the surface temperature of your skin and clothes will be about 86 ◦F. Estimate the net rate at which your body loses energy by radiation to the night sky under these conditions.
A hollow cylinder has length L, inner radius R, and thickness d, and the temperatures at the inner and outer surfaces are Tn and Ti, respectively. The thermal conductivity of the material of which the cylinder is made is k. Derive an equation for the rate of heat transfer P through the walls of the cylinder. Simplify this equation assuming that the thickness of the cylinder d is much smaller than the its inner radius R.
You take an aluminum cylinder with a mass m = (315± 2) g out of a furnace at temperature T = (250 ± 5)C °and place it in a large bath of cool water. The final 1 temperature of the cylinder and water is T2 = (29 ±1) C° . How much heat flows from the cylinder to the water, and what are the absolute and relative errors in the heat transfer out of the cylinder? The heat transfer is given by Q = mc T ∆where ∆T is the change in temperature and c = (0.215± 0.005)cal/g C is ⋅t°he specific heat of aluminum.
A 175.0 km long electric power line made out of copper is installed during the Spring months at an average temperature of 10.9 °C. What is the change in the length of the power line on a hot Summer day, when the temperature is 41.9 °C? The coefficient of linear expansion for copper is 1.62×10-5 1/C°. Use positive sign for an increase in length and negative for a decrease. What is the change in the length of the cable on a -26.9 °C cold Winter day?
A 670 kg meteorite made up of mostly aluminum, approaches the Earth. The initial temperature of the meteorite is -15.0°C and moves with a speed of 14.0km/s. When the meteorite collides with the Earth, half of its energy goes to Earth while the rest causes an increase in the internal energy of the meteorite which causes a momentary elevation of its temperature. Determine the final temperature of the meteorite if all the aluminum turns into gas. Assume the specific heat capacity for the liquid and gaseous aluminum is 1.17 X103J/kg* oC.
An aluminum wire is wrapped in rubber insulation. Both are subject to thermal expansion, with the following coefficients of linear expansion: alphaa=24· 10−6 1/C and alphar=8· 10−5 1/C . If the wire and insulation are the same length of 1.85m at a temperature of20.00°C, what is the difference in length (in MILLIMETERS) between the copper wire and the rubber insulation when heated up to a temperature of 189.00°C? Express a magnitude only (no negatives!). ______mm (MILLIMETERS!)

An object of mass 7.90 kg falls through a height of 40.0 m and, by means of a mechanical linkage, rotates a paddle wheel that stirs 0.620 kg of water. Assume that the initial gravitational potential energy of the object is fully transferred to thermal energy of the water, which is initially at 13.0°C. What is the temperature rise of the water?
