Chapter 19, Problem 20SP

A small hole in a furnace acts like a blackbody. Its area is 1.00 cm2, and its temperature is the same as that of the interior of the furnace, 1727 °C. How many calories are radiated out of the hole each second?

Water freezes at 0°C at atmospheric pressure (1.01×10° Pa). The densities of water and ice at this temperature and pressure are 1000kg / m and 934 kg / m respectively. The latent heat of fusion is 3.34x10° J/ kg . The pressure required for increasing the melting temperature of ice by 10°C is... GPa. (up to two decimal places)
Solar energy strikes the top of the Earth’s atmosphere at 343 W m−2. About 30 per cent of this energy is reflected directly back into space. The Earth–atmosphere system absorbs the remaining energy and re-radiates it into space as black-body radiation at 5.672 × 10−8(T/K)4 W m−2, where T is the temperature. Assuming that the arrangement has come to equilibrium, what is the average black-body temperature of the Earth? Calculate the wavelength at which the black-body radiation from the Earth is at a maximum.
An ice cube at 0 degrees C is dropped into a container with 0.5 kg of water at 20° C. The specific heat of water is 4186 J/kg° C. The latent heat of fusion for water is 33.5 × 10^4 J/kg. 1. If the ice cube completely melts and the water cools to 0° C, then what is the mass of the ice cube?
