Estimate the energy lost by a scantily clothed University
student sitting in a room which is at 20 degrees Celsius. Assume
the student and surrounds are black body emitters/absorbers. (a)
Estimate the surface area of the student. (b) Estimate (using
scientifific calculations) the amount of energy being emitted by
the student each second (your answers should be in Watt) . (c)
Estimate (using scientifific calculations) the amount of energy
being absorbed from the surroundings by the student each second .
(d) What is the NET amount of energy emitted by the student each
second? (e) Check the accuracy of your calculation via information
you fifind online. (f) How would clothes change your answer? (g)
Explain why an auditorium packed with students needs air
conditioning.
