Asatellite viewing a surface location under cloud-free conditions measures a 12 µm radiance of 6.2 wm-2 µm-1 sr1 . (a) compute it’s brightness temperature. (b) compute the actual temperature of the surface assuming the atmosphere is completely transparent of 12 µm and the surface has an emissivity of 0.9 at this wavelength. (c) is the ratio of brightness temperature to actual temperature equal to the emissivity of the surface?

A2-m rigid tank initially contains saturated water vapor at 100 kpa. the tank is connected to a supply line through a valve. steam is flowing in the supply line at 600 kpa and 300 c. the valve is opened, and steam is allowed to enter the tank until the pressure in the tank reaches the line pressure, at which point the valve is closed. a thermometer placed in the tank indicates that the temperature at the final state is 200°c. determine (a) the mass of steam that has entered the tank (b) the amount of heat transfer.
