Concept explainers

Maxwell speed distribution

Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution or commonly known as Maxwell speed distribution, explains the division of the energy levels of the molecules of an ideal gas on the basis of the statistical theory. In 1859, Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell established the context for the distribution of molecular velocities for random molecules moving in a closed environment. This theory was generalized in 1871 by German physicist Ludwig Boltzmann. He improvised the theory to express the distribution of energy levels among different molecules.

In the question its asks for the rate of energy transfer P after you find what the interface temperature T is. Upon completion from submitting T in into the intial rate equation the final expansion gives: P = A(Th - Tc) / (L1/ k1) + (L2/ k2) I understand how T was achieved from expanding the P1 = P2 substitution, but how is P found from inserting T into P1 = k1A (T - Tc / L1)?

At sufficiently high temperatures, the thermal speeds ofgas molecules may be high enough that collisions may ionize amolecule (that is, remove an outer electron). An ionized gas inwhich each molecule has lost an electron is called a “plasma.”Determine approximately the temperature at which air becomesa plasma.

Check Your Understanding If you consider a very small object, such as a grain of pollen, in a gas, then the number of molecules striking its surface would also be relatively small. Would you expect the grain of pollen to experience any fluctuations in pressure due to statistical fluctuations in the number of gas molecules striking it in a given amount of time?
As the very first rudiment of climatology, estimate the temperature of Earth. Assume it is a perfect sphere and its temperature is uniform. Ignore the greenhouse effect. Thermal radiation from the Sun has an intensity (the "solar constant" S) of about 1370 W/m2 at the radius of Earth's orbit. (a) Assuming the Sun's rays are parallel, what area must S be multiplied by to get the total radiation intercepted by Earth? It will be easiest to answer in tens of Earth's radius, R. (b) Assume that Earth reflects about 30% of the solar energy it intercepts. In other words, Earth has an albedo with a value of A=0.3 . In terms of S, and R, what is the rate at which Earth absorbs energy from the Sun? (c) Find the temperature at which Earth radiates energy at the same rate. Assume that at the infrared wavelengths where it radiates, the emissivity e is 1. Does your result show that the greenhouse effect is important? (d) How does your answer depend on the area of Earth?
