Part A. If the surface temperature of that person's skin is 30∘C (that's a little lower than healthy internal body temperature because your skin is usually a little colder than your insides), what is the total power that person will radiate? For now, assume the person is a perfect blackbody (so ϵ=1). Area of human = 1.75

Answer = 838 W

Part B. So let's include the light the person receives from the room around them. If the room is at "room temperature", 20∘C, what is the total power the person will absorb from their surroundings?(Hint: Because you don't know the size of the room, it's easier to think about the intensity of the light emitted by the room, not the power directly.)

Answer is NOT: 419, 105, 733, or 943

    2. The average person has 1.4 m2 of skin at a skin temperature of roughly 305 K (90°F) Consider the average person to be an ideal radiator standing in a room at a temperature of 293 K (68°F) (a) Calculate the power (energy per uni i) radiated by the average person in the form of blackbody radiation; express your answer in erg s-1. What is the person's "wattage"? (1 W = 107 erg s-1) Compare this to a typical incandescent...

    The emissivity of the human skin is 97.0 percent. Use 35.0 °C for the skin temperature and approximate the human body by a rectangular block with a height of 1.81 m, a width of 40.5 cm and a length of 32.0 cm. Calculate the power emitted by the human body. 1.430x103 w You are correct. Your receipt no. is 158-4715 Previous Tries Fortunately our environment radiates too. The human body absorbs this radiation with an absorbance of 97.0 percent, so...

    The rate of heat transfer by emitted radiation is determined by the Stefan-Boltzmann law of radiation = ceAT4 t where a 5.67x108 J/(s m2. K4) 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 e...

    Exercise 5: I was changing 34 around too much that I just made it a separate exercise. Suppose 310. grams of ethanol (ethyl alcohol) is in an aluminum cup of 90.0 grams. Both of these are at 30.0C. A mass m of ice at - 8.5C is taken from a freezer and added to the alcohol in the cup. The final temperature of all the components is 18.0C. Assuming no heat was lost from the system, calculate the mass m...

    For the preparation and standardization of NaOH with KHP im supposed to boil water for 1hr and 30 min to remove CO2....the problem is that if I don't boil it for that long and (30 min) b/c of not enough time but I put the water I boiled for 1/2 hr aproximately into a NaOH bottle with a CO2 absorber and stored it there for a few days. I would assume that I would have to boil the water again...but...
