Chapter 12, Problem 12.63P
Referring to the distribution of the spectral transmissivity of low iron glass (Figure 12.23), describe briefly what is meant by the “greenhouse effect.” That is, how does the glass influence energy transfer to and from the contents of a greenhouse?

Please explain with steps.
A typical car's exterior consists of a thin layer of silica (SiO2) over an opaque painted metal panel.
Silica is transparent in the visible wavelengths but offers high reflectance in the near- to mid-
infrared wavelengths. The plot on the next page depicts the diffuse spectral reflectivity (pa) of the
car's surface:

If the car's exterior temperature is T₁ = 77°C, determine both the total absorptivity (a) and the total
emissivity (a) of the silica-covered panel. Assume that the Sun's temperature is Tsun = 5800 K.
