Answer:

Neither country wanted to engage in a nuclear war that would lead to

worldwide destruction.

Explanation:

The US and the USSR were the two global powers between the end of the World War II and the beginning of the 1990s. Each of them was the leader of a block, with the US being the leader of the democratic and capitalist world, while the USSR being the leader of the communist and command economy world.

Despite all of the tensions between the two, and often engaging in wars in other territories on opposite sides, they never engaged in a direct war with each other. They had everything they needed to do so, being heavily militarized and with an abundance of nuclear weapons, but luckily they didn't fight directly. The explantion for this is simple, they were aware that if they entered a war with each other they would destroy the whole world, so everyone would have lost and there wouldn't have been any gain from it.

Using Wien’s Law, estimate the wavelength at which these common materials radiate their peak brightness (show your work):
SSSSS [86.1K]

Explanation:

Wien’s Law:

\lambda _{max}\propto \frac{1}{temperature}

The law states that the wavelength at which black body emits maximum heat  is inversely proportional to the temperature of the body in Kelvins.

\lambda _{max}=\frac{2.9\times 10^{-3}}{T}

1) Walls at 300 K

\lambda _{max}=\frac{2.9\times 10^{-3} mK}{300 K}

\lambda _{max}=9.666\times 10^{-6} m

2) Ice water at 273 K :

\lambda _{max}=\frac{2.9\times 10^{-3} mK}{273 K}

\lambda _{max}=1.062\times 10^{-5} m

3) Hot water at 373 K :

\lambda _{max}=\frac{2.9\times 10^{-3} mK}{373 K}

\lambda _{max}=7.775\times 10^{-6} m

4)Skin at 310 K:

\lambda _{max}=\frac{2.9\times 10^{-3} mK}{310 K}

\lambda _{max}=9.355\times 10^{-6} m

5)An incandescent light bulb at 3000 K

\lambda _{max}=\frac{2.9\times 10^{-3} mK}{3000 K}

\lambda _{max}=9.666\times 10^{-7} m
