An incandescent light bulb has a tungsten filament that is heated to a temperature of 3.00 x103 K when an electric current passes
through it. If the surface area of the filament is approximately 1.00 x 10-4 m? and it has an emissivity of 0.370, what is the power
radiated by the bulb?The Stefan-Boltzmann constant (0) is 5.670 x 10-8 W/(m 2. k4).

The amount of heat per second conducted from the blood capillaries beneath the skin to the surface is 260 J/s. The energy is
transferred a distance of 1.5 x 103 m through a body whose surface area is 1.4 m². Assuming that the thermal conductivity is that of
body fat, determine the temperature difference between the capillaries and the surface of the skin.
The radiation energy (intensity of the radiation) reaching Earth from the sun at the top of the atmosphere is 1.36×103??2⁄, which is called the solar constant. Assuming that Earth absorbs the total power coming from the Sun to the Earth and radiates with the emissivity of 0.8 at a uniform temperature around the Earth, what would the equilibrium temperature of Earth be?
