Which of the following statements describes an anticyclone?

A 1400 kg car is moving at 12 m/s when the driver stops a car what increase in the thermal energy of the car and it surroundings

butalik [34]

KE = 1/2 mv^2

in this case, the initial kinetic energy which is converted to heat is

KE = 1/2 1400 (12)^2

KE = 100,800 J

Suppose your surface body temperature averaged 90 degrees F. How much radiant energy in W/m^2 would be emitted from your body?

Debora [2.8K]

$493 \; \text{W}\cdot \text{m}^{-2}$ .

<h3>Explanation</h3>

The Stefan-Boltzmann Law gives the energy radiation <em>per unit area</em> of a black body:

$\dfrac{P}{A} = \sigma \cdot T^{4}$

where,

$P$ the total power emitted,
$A$ the surface area of the body,
$\sigma$ the Stefan-Boltzmann Constant, and
$T$ the temperature of the body in degrees Kelvins.

$\sigma = 5.67 \times 10^{-8} \;\text{W}\cdot \text{m}^{-2} \cdot \text{K}^{-4}$ .

$T = 90 \; \textdegree{}\text{F} = (\dfrac{5}{9} \cdot (90-32) + 273.15) \; \text{K} = 305.372 \; \text{K}$ .

$\dfrac{P}{A} = \sigma \cdot T^{4} = 5.67 \times 10^{-8} \times 305.372^{4} = 493\; \text{W}\cdot \text{m}^{-2}$ .

Keep as many significant figures in $T$ as possible. The error will be large when $T$ is raised to the power of four. Also, the real value will be much smaller than $493\; \text{W}\cdot \text{m}^{-2}$ since the emittance of a human body is much smaller than assumed.
