The roof of a house absorbs a solar radiant flux of 600 W/m", while the underside to the ceiling is perfectly insulated (assumed). The convection coefficient between the roof and the ambient air is 30 W/m2-K. Neglecting radiation exchange with the surroundings, what is the temperature of the roof under steady state conditions if the ambient air temperature is 28°C? Express your answer in °C
