I need the answer as soon as possible
A thermometer reading 45°C is brought outside
where the temperature is 25°C. Five minutes later,
the thermometer reading is 33°C. Determine the
thermometer reading 10 minutes after the
thermometer was brought outside.

- Asapparrow_forwardAt a climate station, air pressure is measured as 100 kPa, air temperature as 24°C, and the wet-bulb or dew point temperature as 19°C. Calculate the corresponding relative humidity in percent.arrow_forwardDuring winter, when people are in a well-insulated house,they usually feel comfortable if the air temperature is near22°C (72°F). If you have ever spent a night in a poorly insulatedcabin in winter, however, you will recognize that paradoxically,when people are in poorly insulated buildings, they often feelchilly even when the air inside is heated to 22°C or higher. Oneimportant reason for the difference in how warm people feel inthe two sorts of buildings is that even if a well-insulated andpoorly insulated building are identical in the air temperatureinside, they differ in thermal-radiation heat transfer. Specifically,a person standing in the two types of buildings experiencesdifferent heat exchange by thermal radiation in the two. Explainhow thermal-radiation heat transfer accounts for the sense ofchill in the poorly insulated building. (Hint: Think of the outerwalls of the two types of buildings, and think specifically of thetemperatures of the interior surfaces of those walls.)arrow_forward
