Thermal radiation is a form of heat transfer because the electromagnetic radiation emitted from the source carries energy away from the source to surrounding (or distant) objects.
I tried, but I hope this helps :)

- The following question can be solved better with the help of a MATLAB program as follows. The code is given in the attachment.
- The plot of the graph is given in attachment.
- The code covers the entire spectrum of the poly-tropic range ( 1.2 - 1.6 ) and 20 steps ( cases ) have been plotted and compared in the attached plot.
Answer:
Go to explaination for the details of the answer.
Explanation:
In order to determine the lifetime (75 years) chronic daily exposure for each individual, we have to first state the terms of our equation:
CDI = Chronic Daily Intake
C= Chemical concentration
CR= Contact Rate
EFD= Exposure Frequency and Distribution
BW= Body Weight
AT = Average Time.
Having names our variables lets create the equations that will be used to derive our answers.
Please kindly check attachment for details of the answer.
Answer:
15.24°C
Explanation:
The quality of any heat pump pumping heat from cold to hot place is determined by its coefficient of performance (COP) defined as

Where Q_{in} is heat delivered into the hot place, in this case, the house, and W is the work used to pump heat
You can think of this quantity as similar to heat engine's efficiency
In our case, the COP of our heater is

Where T_{house} = 24°C and T_{out} is temperature outside
To achieve maximum heating, we will have to use the most efficient heat pump, and, according to the second law of thermodynamics, nothing is more efficient that Carnot Heat Pump
Which has COP of:

So we equate the COP of our heater with COP of Carnot heater

Rearrange the equation

Solve this simple quadratic equation, and you should get that the lowest outdoor temperature that could still allow heat to be pumped into your house would be
15.24°C
