Electromagnetic radiation is more common than you think. Radio andTV stations emit radio waves when they broadcast their programs;microwaves cook your food in a microwave oven; dentists use X raysto check your teeth. Even though they have different names anddifferent applications, these types of radiation are really all thesame thing: electromagnetic (EM) waves, that is, energy thattravels in the form of oscillating electric and magnetic fields
Consider the following:
radio waves emitted by a weather radar system to detectraindrops and ice crystals in the atmosphere to study weatherpatterns;
microwaves used in communication satellite transmissions;
infrared waves that are perceived as heat when you turn on aburner on an electric stove;
the multicolor light in a rainbow;
the ultraviolet solar radiation that reaches the surface of theearth and causes unprotected skin to burn; and
X rays used in medicine for diagnostic imaging

An air-standard stirling cycle operates with a maximum pressure of 600 psia and a minimum pressure of 10 psia. the maximum volume of the air is 10 times the minimum volume. the temperature during the heat rejection process is 100°f. calculate the specific heat added to and rejected by this cycle, as well as the net specific work produced by the cycle. use constant specific heats at room temperature. the properties of air at room temperature are r
