Estimate the wavelength corresponding to maximum emission from each of the following surfaces: the sun, a tungsten filament at 2

500 K, a heated metal at 1500 K, human skin at 305 K, and a cryogenically cooled metal surface at 60 K. Estimate the fraction of the solar emission that is in the following spectral regions: the ultraviolet, the visible, and the infrared.

Answer

Applying Wein's displacement

\lamda_{max}\ T = 2898 \mu_mK

1) for sun T = 5800 K

      \lambda_{max} = \dfrac{2898}{5800}

      \lambda_{max} = 0.5 \mu_m

2) for tungsten T = 2500 K

      \lambda_{max} = \dfrac{2898}{2500}

      \lambda_{max} = 1.16 \mu_m

3) for heated metal T = 1500 K

      \lambda_{max} = \dfrac{2898}{1500}

      \lambda_{max} = 1.93 \mu_m

4) for human skin T = 305 K

      \lambda_{max} = \dfrac{2898}{305}

      \lambda_{max} = 9.50 \mu_m

5)  for cryogenically cooled metal T = 60 K

      \lambda_{max} = \dfrac{2898}{60}

      \lambda_{max} = 48.3 \mu_m

range of different spectrum

UV ----0.01-0.4

visible----0.4-0.7

infrared------0.7-100

for sun T = 5800

λ              0.01           0.4               0.7                 100

λT             58           2320            4060             5.8 x 10⁵

F                0             0.125             0.491                1

fractions

for UV = 0.125  

for visible = 0.441-0.125 = 0.366

for infrared = 1 -0.491 = 0.509

3) If an airplane is in flight cruising at constant velocity, what can be said about the net work
Crazy boy [7]

Explanation:

<h2>Yes!</h2>

<h3>In physics, constant velocity occurs when there is no net force acting on the object causing it to accelerate. In terms of airplane flight, the two main forces influencing its velocity forward are drag and thrust. At a constant altitude, when the force of thrust equals the opposing force of drag, then the airplane will experience uniform motion in one direction. This can be further explained by Newton’s First Law. </h3>

The experiments Galileo performed, such as rolling a ball down an inclined plane, are important because they
anyanavicka [17]

Galileo Galilei is one of the key figures in the history of Science, being the first to apply the experimental-mathematical scientific method. He carried out experiments and careful observations in kinematics (his studies on the trajectory of projectiles are famous) and dynamics (it should be noted his careful experiments with inclined planes), establishing the first law of Dynamics (which Newton will later collect and refine in his Principles); and in Astronomy, with which he could unequivocally support the heliocentric theory.

His experiments were addressed by methodologies that allowed him to precisely find his mathematical calculations and to verify theories he was developing over time. His manuscripts were key to disseminate the applied method and extrapolate them to other scientific areas.

Therefore the correct answer is C.
