In this problem you will consider the balance of thermal energy radiated and absorbed by a person. Assume that the person is wearing only a skimpy bathing suit of negligible area. As a rough approximation, the area of a human body may be considered to be that of the sides of a cylinder of length L=2.0m and circumference C=0.8m. For the Stefan-Boltzmann constant use ?=5.67

-1 Suppose a beam of particles with flux o is incident on a uniform target of thickness T and density p (mass/volume). Assuming that the atoms in the target do not block one another (the thin-target approxima- tion), show that the reaction rate dN/dt is given by dN/dt (i.e., the integral of the flux over the area of the beam), m is the molecular mass of the target, NA is Avogadro's number, and o is the reaction cross section.

You are performing work as an assistant to a cosmology professor. She asks you to estimate the temperature of the Universe at a time after the Big Bang when neutral atoms could form from the plasma and the Universe became transparent. She tells you that the energy required to excite an atom is on the order of 1 eV. She suggests you use the Boltzmann distribution function e-E/k BT to find the order of magnitude of the threshold temperature at which 1.00% of a population of photons has energy greater than 1.00 eV.
In this problem we will deal with simple thermodynamics model of a black hole. Assume that the properties of a black hole depend only on the mass of the black hole. (a) One characteristic of a black hole is the area of its event horizon. Roughly speaking, the event horizon is the boundary of the black hole. Inside this boundary, the gravity is so strong that even light cannot emerge from the region enclosed by the boundary. We shall write A = G°c°m. Use dimensional analysis to find a, ß , and y. (b) One quantities in thermodynamics is entropy (S), that measure the disorder of a system. The relationship between entropy S, energy E and temperature 0 of a system is given as follow: entropy is proportional the area of the black hole's event horizon S = nA, where 7 depends on c, kip, G and h. Using dimensional analysis determine n. For black holes, Bekenstein propose that the || dE (c) With the previous results, determine the temperature of the black hole, as a function of the mass. The…

This source is assumed to emit electromagnetic radiation only because of its temperature, not its composition. This kind of source is called a blackbody, and if we graph the intensity of its emitted radiation across all wave- lengths (as in Figure 6.17), we obtain a characteristic curve called a blackbody spectrum. As the object's temperature increases, it emits more radiation at every wavelength, so each increase in temperature raises the curve. The luminosity of the object (the total amount of light emitted) increases. In fact, it increases quite fast as the…
