    The amount of pressure in water vapor contained in a container is solely dependent on the temperature and not on the quantity of water, as long as it is in sufficient amount to keep the liquid and vapor phase in equilibrium. Since containers B and E are at the same temperatures, then the two containers will have the same water vapor pressure, ignoring the contents’ differences in terms of water.

    Hence, the ratio of the vapor pressures will be 1:1.

    Thermally, an average human body is always losing thermal radiation for it is slightly above 37°C. What radiates is dominantly in the infrared region. Infrared waves are not detected by the eyes and can only be seen with specially designed sensors and some cameras. No matter the month or time, this emission remains constant because these depend on how hot the bodies are, hence not on nature.

  3. The energy radiated by a body is given by Stefan-Boltzmann Law: E ∝ T⁴ Where: - E is the energy radiated, - T is the temperature in kelvins. If the temperature of the sun is doubled, i.e., T → 2T: E' ∝ (2T)⁴ = 16T⁴ This means that the energy hitting the Earth will be increased by a factor of 16. CliRead more

  4. To determine the radiating power of a black body according to the Stefan-Boltzmann law: P = σ A (T⁴ - Tₛ⁴) Where, - P is the radiating power - σ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant. - A is the surface area. - T is the temperature of the body. - Tₛ is the temperature of the surroundings. Given: The tempRead more

    To determine the radiating power of a black body according to the Stefan-Boltzmann law:

    P = σ A (T⁴ – Tₛ⁴)

    Where,
    – P is the radiating power
    – σ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant.
    – A is the surface area.
    – T is the temperature of the body.
    – Tₛ is the temperature of the surroundings.
    Given:
    The temperature of the black body, T = 727°C = 727 + 273 = 1000 K,
    – Temperature of environment, Tᵣ = 227°C = 227 + 273 = 500 K,
    Radiation intensity at 727°C is 60 W.

    The change in radiation power at 727°C is as follows using power ratio due to temperature difference as follows:

    (P₂ / P₁) = (T₂ / T₁)⁴

    Substitute values:
    (P₂ / 60) = (1000 / 500)⁴
    (P₂ / 60) = 16
    P₂ = 60 × 16 = 960 W

    So the correct value for the new radiating power is 240 W.

    The radiated energy by a black body follows the Stefan-Boltzmann law, according to which the energy radiated is proportional to the fourth power of the absolute temperature T (in Kelvin).

    Given temperature is 727°C. First convert the temperature from degree Celsius to Kelvin by just adding 273°.

    T = 727°C + 273 = 1000 K

    Since the radiated energy is proportional to T⁴, the energy in this case is proportional to (1000)⁴.
