Two parallel planes (90 by 60 cm) are separated by a distance of (60 cm). One plane is maintained at a temperature of (800 K) and has an emissivity of (0.6). The other plane is insulated. The planes are placed in a large room that is maintained at (290 K). Calculate the temperature of the insulated plane and the energy lost by the heated plane.
