The term 'thermal energy' is used differently, and often loosely, in different contexts. It refers to several distinct physical concepts, such as the internal energy, or as the enthalpy, of a body of matter and radiation; or as heat, defined as a type of energy transfer (as is thermodynamic work); or as the characteristic energy of a degree of freedom,
k
B
T
{\displaystyle k_{\mathrm {B} }T}, in a system that is described in terms of its microscopic particulate constituents, where
T
T denotes temperature and
k
B
k_{\mathrm{B}} denotes the Boltzmann constant.

I learned this last week in my Sci-tech class!

Calculate the speed of light if the wavelength is 3cm and the period is 1*10^-10

ioda

First you find the frequency which is. 1/T(period) so u get 1*10^10
Now that you know frequency u can solve for speed: s= wavelength* frequency, but don't forget to convert 3cm into meters: 3/100= .03m so now you do (1*10^10)(.3)= 300,000,000 m/s or 3*10^8 m/s

Hope this helped :))

If you calculate the thermal power radiated by typical objects at room temperature, you will find surprisingly large values, sev

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

best explanation of this is sentence B

Explanation:

The radiation emission of the bodies is given by the expression

P = σ A e T⁴

Where P is the power emitted in watts, σ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant, A is the surface area of the body, e is the emissivity for black body e = 1 and T is the absolute body temperature in degrees Kelvin.

When the values are substituted the power is quite high 2.5 KW, but the medium surrounding the box also emits radiation

T box ≈ T room

P box ≈ P room

As the two powers are similar and the box can absorbed, since it has the ability to emit and absorb radiation, as the medium is also close of the temperature of the box, the amount emitted is very similar to that absorbed, so the net change in energy is very small.

In the case that the box is much hotter or colder than the surrounding medium if there is a significant net transfer.

Consequently, the best explanation of this is sentence B
