A solar sail is made of aluminized Mylar having an emissivity of 0.03 and reflecting 91% of the light that falls on it. Suppose a sail with area 1.26 km2 is oriented so that sunlight falls perpendicular to its surface with an intensity of 1.40 103 W/m2. To what temperature will it warm before it emits as much energy (from both sides) by radiation as it absorbs on the sunny side

Acar is traveling at 53.0 mi/h on a horizontal highway. (a) if the coefficient of static friction between road and tires on a rainy day is 0.104, what is the minimum distance in which the car will stop?

To protect all four receptacles on a branch circuit that surrounds a swimming pool, you would install which of the following configurations? a. gfci feed-through receptacle at the end of the load's circuit b. gfci-terminated receptacle at the beginning of the load's circuit c. gfci feed-through receptacle at the beginning of the load's circuit and the other receptacles connected to the load side of that receptacle d. gfci-terminated receptacle at each end of the load's circuit

Air is to be preheated by hot exhaust gases in a cross-flow heat exchanger before it enters the furnace. air enters the heat exchanger at 95 kpa and 20°c at a rate of 0.6 m^3/s. the combustion gases (cp = 1.10 kj/kg°c) enter at 160°c at a rate of 0.95 kg/s and leave at 95°c. determine the rate of heat transfer to the air and its outlet temperature.
