A person with a surface temperature of 35ºC emits about 1.36 x 1022 photons per second into an environment at 20ºC. Suppose the person has a mass of 72.9 kg and stands on a frictionless surface.
Find the recoil speed of the person after 1.00 h assuming all the photons are emitted in the same direction with a wavelength of 16 mm.

A solid metal sphere emits 1.02 ✕ 1020 photons every second with a radiating power of 1.43 W. (a)Determine the energy associated with each photon. (b) Assuming the sphere's power output is associated with the peak wavelength, determine the temperature of the sphere at which this wavelength is emitted.
Radiation of Energy The rate of heat transfer by emitted radiation is determined by the Stefan-Boltzmann law of radiation: = aeAT4 where o 5.67x10-8 J/s - m2 K is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant, A is the surface area of the object, and T is its absolute temperature in kelvin. The symbol e stands for the emissivity of the object, which is a measure of how well it radiates An ideal jet-black (or black body) radiator has e 1,whereas a perfect reflector has...
