A 0.6m diameter sphere is suspended in an enclosure.  The ball is kept at a constant 200oC, while the enclosure is kept at 25oC. a) If the enclosure is opaque, how much radiation is emitted by the ball into the enclosure? b) If the enclosure is not opaque, it does not form a black body.  Let’s say the enclosure has a transmissivity of 0.6 and a reflectivity of 0.2.  How much thermal radiation is absorbed by the enclosure?
