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?

- As an amateur astronomer, you are studying the apparent brightness of stars. You know that a star’s apparent brightness depends on its distance from the earth and also on the fraction of its radiated energy that is in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum. But, as a first step, you search the Internet for information on the surface temperatures and radii of some selected stars so that you can calculate their total radiated power. You find the data given in the table. The radius is given in units of the radius of the sun, Rsun = 6.96 * 108 m. The surface temperature is the effective temperature that gives the measured photon luminosity of the star if the star is assumed to radiate as an ideal blackbody. The photon luminosity is the power emitted in the form of photons. (a) Which star in the table has the greatest radiated power? (b) For which of these stars, if any, is the peak wavelength lm in the visible range (380–750 nm)?
