In an old house, the heating system uses radiators, which are hollow metal devices through which hot water or steam circulates. in one room the radiator has a dark color (emissitivity = 0.830). it has a temperature of 64.1 oc. the new owner of the house paints the radiator a lighter color (emissitivity = 0.426). assuming that it emits the same radiant power as it did before being painted, what is the temperature (in degrees celsius) of the newly painted radiator?

T = 125.30C

Explanation:

Using Stefan-Boltzmann law

P/A = e* Stefan-Boltzmann constant * T^4

Where p= radiant power in watts

e = emissivity

T = Temperature in kelvin

A= Surface area of the object measured in m^2

Considering that after painting the object have the radiant power then

0.83* A* Stefan-Boltzmann constant *(337.1^4) = 0.46 * A* Stefan-Boltzmann constant * Tnew^4

Cancelling the common terms yields

0.83*(337.1^4) = 0.426*Tnew^4

Fourthroot(0.83*(337.1^4)) = Tnew

Tnew = 398.3k = in degree Celsius 125.3

i think the answer would be b

probably not the "magnets"in the magnet, so to speak, are thought to be electrons orbiting in shells. vurrent loops two sides to the loop
