(a) The blackbody radiation emitted from a furnace peaks at a wavelength of 4.5 10-6 m (0.0000045 m). What is the temperature inside the furnace? (in K) (b) The charger cord used to recharge a cell phone contains a transformer that reduces 120 V AC to 4 V AC. For each 1,400 turns in the input coil, how many turns are there in the output coil? (Round your answer to at least one decimal place.)

Energy produced in the center of the Sun has a hard time finding its way out. We can estimate roughly how long it takes an average photon to get out by looking at the motion in one dimension only. On average, a photon goes about 1 cm between collisions with hydrogen nuclei or electrons and undergoes about 108 such collisions per second. (Use the hints in problem 29 if necessary. ) (a) What is the average distance traveled in any dimension per step? (b) What is the standard deviation about this value? (c) The radius of the Sun is about 7.0 x10³ m. About how many steps must a photon take before having a 32% chance of being outside the Sun in this dimension? (d) To how many years does this number of steps correspond? (1 year = 3.17 x 107 seconds).

you are sitting at a desk in a completely dark room. the room is at normal indoor room temperature. there is an inanimate and un-powered object on your desk (e.g., a box, pencil case, notebook,...). what wavelength of blackbody radiation is emitted from that object with greatest intensity? (assume the object has the same temperature as the rest of the room.) express your answer in microns.
