The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by the question is the first choice, larger.

Rankine is Fahrenheit + 460 , while Kelvin is Celsius + 273. We all know that Fahrenheit has larger number compared to kelvin , thus rankine is much larger.
Hope my answer would be a great help for you.    If you have more questions feel free to ask here at Brainly.

What is the rate of heat transfer by radiation, with an unclothed person standing in a dark room whose ambient temperature is 22
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

5.45\times 10^{-4} W

Explanation:

T_{r} = Temperature of the room = 22.0 °C = 22 + 273 = 295 K

T_{s} = Temperature of the skin = 33.0 °C = 33 + 273 = 306 K

A = Surface area = 1.50 m²

\epsilon = emissivity = 0.97

\sigma = Stefan's constant = 5.67 x 10⁻⁸ Wm⁻² K⁻⁴

Rate of heat transfer is given as

R = \epsilon \sigma A (T_{s}^{2} - T_{r}^{2})

R = (0.97)(5.67\times 10^{-8}) (1.50) ((306)^{2} - (295)^{2})

R = 5.45\times 10^{-4} W

ListenA person on a ledge throws a ball vertically downward, striking the ground below the ledge with 200 joules of kinetic ener
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

A. 200 J

Explanation:

The initial kinetic energy depends on the initial speed, while the gravitational potential energy depends on the height, both balls are thrown with the same initial speed and from the same height. Therefore, due to the law of conservation of energy, the balls must have the same mechanical energy (the sum of both energies) when both impact the ground. Since the potential energy is zero at this point, its final kinetic energy must also be the same.

An underwater scuba diver sees the Sun at an apparent angle of 43.0° above the horizontal. What is the actual elevation angle of
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

The actual elevation angle is 12.87 degrees

Explanation:

In the attachment you can clearly see the situation. The angle of elevation as seen for the scuba diver is shown in magenta, we conclude that \theta_2=90-43=47.

Using Snell's Law we can write:

n_1\sin(\theta_1)=n_2\sin(\theta_2)

\implies \sin(\theta_1)=\frac{n_2}{n_1}\sin(\theta_2),

Let's approximate the index of refraction of the air (medium 1 in the picture) to 1.

We thus have:

\sin(\theta_1)=n_2\sin(\theta_2)=1.333\sin(47)

\implies\theta_1=\arcsin[n_2\sin(\theta_2)]=\arcsin[1.333\sin(47)]\approx 77.13. Calling \alpha the actual angle of elevation, we get from the picture that \alpha=90-77.13=12.97
