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

Why does Mars not have an electric field and why
tangare [24]

Answer:

The difference lies in the planets' respective magnetic fields, because while Earth's magnetism comes from within, Mars' does not. Earth's magnetism comes from its core, where molten, electrically conducting iron flows beneath the crust. Its magnetic field is global, meaning it surrounds the entire planet

Please help
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

3200 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of Sound through Argon is 319.

The speed of sound in any chemical element in the fluid phase has one temperature-dependent value. In the solid phase, different types of sound wave may be propagated, each with its own speed: among these types of wave are longitudinal (as in fluids), transversal, and (along a surface or plate) extensional.

If argon could exist as solid, then 3200 m/s is the best speed.
