The planet reflects 40% of the light falling on it, and the average temperature on the facing surface is nearly uniform and 185 K larger than the nearly uniform temperature on its back surface. What is the planet’s average temperature? The planet's average planetary temperature is _______ K.arrow_forwardIt is well known that wind makes the cold air feel much colder as a result of the wind chill effect that is due to the increase in the convection heat transfer coefficient with increasing air velocity. The wind chill effect is usually expressed in terms of the wind chill temperature (WCT), which is the apparent temperature felt by exposed skin. For outdoor air temperature of 0°C, for example, the wind chill temperature is 25°C at 20 km/h winds and -9°C at 60 km/h winds. That is, a person exposed to 0°C windy air at 20 km/h will feel as cold as a person exposed to -5°C calm air (air motion under 5 km/h). For heat transfer purposes, a standing man can be modeled as a 30-cm-diameter, 170-cm-long vertical cylinder with both the top and bottom surfaces insulated and with the side surface at an average temperature of 34°C. For a convection heat transfer coefficient of 15 W/m2·K, determine the rate of heat loss from this man by convection in still air at 20°C. What would your answer be if the…arrow_forward
- At night, the surface of the earth cools, mostly by radiation. The surface radiates energy upward; the much cooler sky above radiates much less. Patches of ground under trees can stay warmer, which is why, if you live somewhere that has cold, clear nights, you may have noticed some mornings when there is frost on open patches of ground but not under trees. Why does being under a tree keep the ground warmer?arrow_forwardThe prevailing winds on the Hawaiian island of Kauai blow from the northeast. The winds cool as they go up the slope of Mt. Waialeale (elevation 1523 m), causing water vapor to condense and rain to fall. There is much more precipitation at the summit than at the base of the mountain. In fact, Mt. Waialeale is the rainiest spot on earth, averaging 11.7 m of rainfall a year. But what makes the winds cool?arrow_forwardYou are planning a birthday party for your niece and need to make at least 4 gallons of Kool-Aid, which you would like to cool down to 32 oF (0 °C) before the party begins. Unfortunately, your refrigerator is already so full of treats that you know there will be no room for the Kool-Aid. So, with a sudden flash of insight, you decide to start with 4 gallons (1 gallon = 3.7854 liters, and a liter (L) is 0.001 cubic meters) of the coldest tap water you can get, which you determine is 50 °F (10 °C), and then cool it down with a 1- quart (1/4 of a gallon) chunk of ice you already have in your freezer. The owner's manual for your refrigerator states that when the freezer setting is on high, the temperature is -20 °C. Will your plan work? You assume that the density of the Kool-Aid is about the same as the density of water. You look in your physics book and find that the density of water is 1.0 g/cm3 (1kg/L), the density of ice is 0.9 g/cm3 (0.9kg/L), the heat capacity of water is 4200 J /…arrow_forward
- I have a bucket of icewater with 100 grams of ice and 900 grams of liquid water all at zero degrees Celcius. I throw a hot chunk of iron into it (after which no heat enters or escapes the system), and the final temperature is 100 degrees Celcius with the ice having melted and some of the water actually boiling. The mass of the iron is 465 grams, and its initial temperature is 3,260 degrees Celcius. How many grams of water actually boil? (Don't write the unit, just the number.) You'll need these numbers: Specific heat of water: 4.2 J/g/deg Specific heat of iron: 0.46 J/g/deg Heat of fusion of water: 340 J/g Heat of Vaporization of water: 2300 J/garrow_forwardSuppose you and your friends are going on a picnic to Tagaytay, which is three hours' drive from Manila. You carry 2 kg ice and placed these in a Styrofoam box measuring 30 cm by 40 cm by 50 cm. The thickness of the box is 5 cm. The outside temperature is 32°C. By the time you reach Tagaytay, do you still have ice? What is its mass? (Thermal conductivity of Styrofoam is equal to 0.010 J/smC°).arrow_forward18.
