The planet Mercury's surface temperature varies from 700 K during the day to 90 K at night.What is the temperature in ?C during the day?What is the temperature in ?C at night?What is the temperature in ?F during the day?What is the temperature in ?F at night?
Homework Answers
a)
Kelvin to Degree centigrade
Tday=700-273 = 427oC
b)
Tnight=90-273 =-183oC
c)
Degrees to fahrenheit
oF=oC*(9/5) +32
so
Tday=427*(9/5) +32=800.6 oF
d)
Tnight=-183*(9/5)+32 =-297.4 oF

Recent studies indicate that the average surface temperature of a planet has been rising steadily. Some scientists have modeled the temperature by the linear function T = 0.02t + 8.25, where T is temperature in °C and t represents years since 1900. (a) What do the slope and T-intercept represent? The slope is 0.2 which means that the average surface temperature of the planet is increasing at a rate of 2 X °C per year. The T-intercept is 8.25 which...

Today the Earth's effective temperature is 255 K and its average surface temperature is 288 K. Some scientists claim that in year 2040 Earth's albedo will decrease from its current value of 0.3 to 0.14 because of the reduction in the glaciers. If everything else remains the same what will be the average surface temperature of the Earth in 2040? The temperature of the Earth in 2040 will be TEarth = K
