Chapter 27, Problem 5P
27.1 Black Body
* EST Estimate the surface area of a 60-watt lightbulb filament. Assume that the surface temperature of the filament when it is plugged into an outlet of 120 V is about 3000 K and the power rating of the bulb is the electric energy it consumes (not what it radiates). Incandescent lightbulbs usually radiate in visible light about 10% of the electric energy that they consume.

- Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum that reaches the Earth from the Sun. It has wave-lengths shorter than those of visible light, making it invisible to the naked eye. These wavelengths are classified as UVA, UVB, or UVC, with UVA the longest of the three at 320 nm to 400 nm. Both the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the World Health Organization have identified UV as a proven human carcinogen. Many experts believe that, especially for fair-skinned people, UV radiation frequently plays a key role in melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer, which kills more than 8000 Americans each year. UVB has a wave-length between 280 nm and 320 nm. Determine the frequency ranges of UVA and UVB.arrow_forwardSuppose a star 1000 times brighter than our Sun (that is, emitting 1000 times the power) suddenly goes supernova.

- An infrared thermometer (or pyrometer) detects radiation emitted from surfaces to measure temperature. Using an infrared thermometer, a physician measures a patient's skin temperature as 32.7°C. What is the wavelength (in µm) of photons emitted with the greatest intensity from the patient's skin? (Enter your answer to at least two decimal places.) answer in µmarrow_forward3. Dimensional analysis can provide insight into Stefan-Boltzmann's law for the radiation from a black body. According to this law the intensity of radiation, in units of J s-' m-², from a body at temperature Tis 1 = GT*, where e is Stefan-Boltzmann's constant. Because black-body radiation can be considered to be a gas of photons, i.e. quantum particles which move with velocity e with typical energies of the order of kT, the intensity I is a function of h, c and kT. Use dimensional analysis to confirm that Iis proportional to 7 and find the dependence of a on h and c.arrow_forward
