The exterior of a supersonic Airplane is made of aluminum which has a coefficient of linear expansion of 24.0 x10^-6 1/K. If the plane is 45.6m long at a temp of 10 C. When the plane is in flight the friction due to air resistance increases the temp of the aluminum to 150 C. What is the change in length of the plane?

Problem 1: The average amount of sunlight falling on the Earth's surface is 4.78 x10 5 erg cm-2 s-1. Earth is in a steady state with its temperature nearly constant by radiating away the power received from the Sun. Calculate the average temperature of the Earth. Problem 2: A body of mass 5 g is moving with a speed of 25 cm s -1. What is the force needed to stop the body in 10 seconds.
Nuclear fusion, the energy source of the Sun, hydrogen bombs, and fusion reactors, occurs much more readily when the average kinetic energy of the atoms is high—that is, at high temperatures. Suppose you want the atoms in your fusion experiment to have average kinetic energies of 5.09 ✕ 10−14 J. What temperature in kelvin is needed?
Large meteors sometimes strike the Earth, converting most of their kinetic energy into thermal energy. If a 10° kg meteor moving at 25.0 km/s lands in a deep ocean and 80% of its kinetic energy goes into heating water, how many kilograms of water could it raise by 5.0°C? Select the correct answer O 8 x 1012 kg O 5 x 1013 kg O 1 x 1013 kg O 4 x 1012 kg. Your Answer O 2 x 1013 kg

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.
