Radiation from the head is a major source of heat loss from the human body. Model a head as a 21-cm-diameter, 20-cm-tall cylinde

r with a flat top.
If the body's surface temperature is 36?C , what is the net rate of heat loss on a chilly 9?C day? All skin, regardless of color, is effectively black in the infrared where the radiation occurs, so use an emissivity of 0.95.

I have worked it through three times with other written solutions however i cannot arrive at the correct answer. A final answer as well as a solution would be appreciated! Thanks!

We have the following assumptions:
The temperature of the surroundings remains constant.
The entire surface area of head emits radiation.

From the problem, we have the given values:
emissivity = 0.95
T2 = 36 degrees C
T1 = 9 degrees C

Solving for the area:
A = πD² + πDh = π(21)² + π(21)(20) = 2709.91 cm² = 0.2710 m²

Using the heat transfer equation for radiation:
q = εAσ(T₂⁴ - T₁⁴)
q = 0.95 (0.2710)(5.67 x 10<span>-8)[(36+273)</span>⁴-(9+273)⁴]
q = 3.9 x 10^9 W

A scientist is trying to determine the relationship between clams, snails, and squid. When she generates a molecular clock, she
sleet_krkn [62]

Based on the description above, the molecular clock data shows is that the Clams and Snails are more similar and related in structure compared of the clams and squids. It is because it could be seen in the process that organism are better in adapting to their environment in means of increasing their number, survive and to pass on their traits to the next generation.

Which is an example of an incomplete dominance
VashaNatasha [74]
Pink snapdragons are a result of incomplete dominance. Cross-pollination between red snapdragons and white snapdragons result in pink when neither the white or the red alleles are dominant. The fruit color of eggplants is another example of incomplete dominance.

If a cell were treated with poison to block to function of its michocondria which of the following would be likely result?
blagie [28]
<span>The pH of the matrix increases and the pH of the inter membrane cell decreases
</span>
The reason behind this is the presence of the electron transport chain within the mitochondria which requires the transport of hydrogen ions. The movement of hydrogen ions results in varying pH. If the mitochondria dies, the hydrogen ions will not move into the matrix, causing its pH to increase, and they will build up in the inter membrane causing a decrease in pH.

Can someone help me on this question please? For brainliest
Serggg [28]

Answer:

1 and 4

Explanation:

Streams and small rivers flow together to create river systems. As the weather gets warmer, the snow and ice from the winter melts, which makes the water flow down the stream and into the larger river system. ... This can result in flooding due to more water draining in than being lost to evaporation.
