Asphere has radius 0.30 m, surface emissivity 0.48, and temperature 600 k. surrounding the sphere is a concentric spherical shell. the inner surface of the shell has radius 0.90 m, emissivity 1.00, and temperature 400 k. at what net rate and direction is heat radiated across the space between the sphere and the shell? the stefan-boltzmann constant is 5.67 × 10-8 w/(m2 ∙ k4). 18.8 kw, outward 10.8 kw, inward 8.3 kw, outward 6.5 kw, inward 4.0 kw, outward

hi i’m sorry to call us today so we will get back with y’all and we will have to do it haha omg was the day

scattering of light by tiny particles in air to produce the colors we see on sky, is dependent on the following factors:

(i) wavelength of light

(ii) size of the scattering particle  

(iii) distance traveled by light through the atmosphere.

according to rayleigh's law of scattering, the amount of scattering is inversely proportional to the fourth power of its wavelength. shorter the wavelength, greater is its scattering. hence violet/blue light is scattered more than red.

sun's light is a composite light ( visible light) with wavelengths in the range 400 nm (violet) to 700 nm (red). as sunlight passes through our atmosphere, the molecules of air scatter light according to their wavelengths. during sunrise and sunset, the sun's position is below the horizon. hence light from the sun travels a greater distance in the atmosphere when compared to its position a noon.

as sunlight enters the earth's atmosphere, blue light is scattered away and at the end of its journey in the sky, only red and orange wavelengths remain in the beam.

hence at sunrise and sunset, the sky appears reddish orange.
