A person is standing outdoors in the shade where the temperature is 17 °C. (a) What is the radiant energy absorbed per second by

his head when it is covered with hair? The surface area of the hair (assumed to be flat) is 140 cm2 and its emissivity is 0.87. (b) What would be the radiant energy absorbed per second by the same person if he were bald and the emissivity of his head were 0.68?

Answer:

a) 4.9W b) 3.82W

Explanation:

Stefan-Boltzmann law of radiation formulae:

Q/t (W) = sigma* e*A*T^4

Sigma = 5.67*10^-8 j/sm^2K^4 (Stefano Boltzmann constant)

e = emissivity

T = absolute temperature in kelvin and A = area in m^2

a) Q/t = 140/10000(m^2) * 0.87* 5.67* 10^-8* (290^4) = 4.9W

b) without hair the

Q/t = 140/ 10000(m^2) *0.68* 5.67* 10^-8* (290^4)

= 3.82W

What is general relativity​
Katena32 [7]

Explanation:

General relativity is a theory of space and time. ... The central idea of general relativity is that space and time are two aspects of spacetime. Spacetime is curved when there is matter, energy, and momentum resulting in what we perceive as gravity. The links between these forces are shown in the Einstein field equations.

Two resistors R1 = 3 Ω and R2 = 6 Ω are connected in parallel. What is the net resistance in the circuit?​
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

"2Ω" is the net resistance in the circuit.

Explanation:

The given resistors are:

R1 = 3Ω

R2 = 6Ω

The net resistance will be:

⇒  \frac{1}{R_{net}} =\frac{1}{R_1} +\frac{1}{R_2}

On substituting the values, we get

⇒  \frac{1}{R_{net}} =\frac{1}{3} +\frac{1}{6}

On taking L.C.M, we get

⇒  \frac{1}{R_{net}} =\frac{2+1}{6}

⇒  \frac{1}{R_{net}} =\frac{3}{6}

⇒  \frac{1}{R_{net}} =\frac{1}{2}

On applying cross-multiplication, we get

⇒ R_{net}=2 \Omega

What is a catchy slogan to help people remember the difference between weathering and erosin
GaryK [48]
These are more of ideas to help your brain invent something less chessy...
Erosion is like corrosion, with no acid.
Erosion happens 'cuz the surface get frozen and beaten by the ocean. (they kinda rhyme) :)
Erosion is the transportation of, the deportation... 
~OR~
I cant think of anything for weathering but i got something good, but its still cheesy/ ):

Erosions' got the grooves and so it moves. But weathering breakdown and changes so its molecules changes.
I'm sorry these kinda suck...
