3. Laws on Conservation. Using the energy model sketched below plus concepts of energy conservation, consider the impact of a dirty war on the global energy. To start, assume that the mpact of this war has created an atmosphere that absorbs 75% of the incoming sunlight, while he albedo is reduced to nearly 20%. Let's assume that Earth's ability to reflect incoming solar radiation is negligible. The Earth's surface radiates 240 W/m2, all of which is absorbed by the atmosphere. Assuming that Earth can be modeled as a blackbody emitter and incoming/outgoing energy as shown in the schematic, find the following quantities: a) The "nuclear winter" temperature [°C] of the surface of the Earth b) X, the rate [W/m²] at which radiation is emitted from the atmosphere to space c) Y, the rate [W/m2] of absorption of short-wavelength solar radiation at the Earth's surface

Explain the forms of energy.
A truncated cone 30 cm high is constructed of aluminum. The diameter at the top is 7.5 cm, and the diameter at the bottom is 12.5 cm. the lower surface is maintained at 93 o C; the upper surface, at 540 o C. The other surface is insulated. Assuming one dimensional heat flow, what is the rate of heat transfer in watts?
List one type of heat energy transfer in your residence. Be sure to justify your answer with a brief explanation.
Your house has an electric water heater. Several friends are visiting you over the weekend and they are taking consecutive showers. Assume that at the maximum heating level, the heater uses 50 kW of electricity. The water use rate is a continuous 4 gallons per minute with the new water saving showerhead you recently installed. Your very old showerhead had used 7 gallons per minute. You replaced the showerhead because you learned that heating water was the second highest energy use in your home. By slowing the flow of water through the heater, the water temperature should increase to a higher temperature. (a) What is the change in temperature (T) for the old showerhead? (b) What is the change in temperature (T) for the new showerhead? Assume the system is at steady sate, and all of the 50 kW energy used is heating the water.

3) (a) Use the following data to calculate the area of solar domestic hot water collector that would be needed to satisfy the family's requirement in hot water at 60 if each of them uses on average 80 litres per day (5 people). (b) What is the total hot water energy used over a period of one year. Total solar energy received per day : 5 kWh/m2 Supply water temperature: 15°C Water average specific heat capacity : 4.2 kJ / (kg K) Solar collector average efficiency : 65% Note that: 1kWh = 3.6MJ
Laws that are used to Transformation of Energy ?
One of the greatest milestones in human civilization is the establishment of equivalence between heat and work by James Joule in 1840s. This set the stage for utilization of energy in fossil fuel to do work that leads to industrial revolution and the release of green-house gases. For sustainable growth with reduced damage to our environment and for the sake of future generation, the present generation need to do the followings: Use more renewable energy such as hydroelectricity, solar energy, wind energy, biodiesel, etc. (iii) Understand fluid dynamics better to design more efficient turbine, propeller etc. Re-organize our economy by introducing tax on the emission of carbon dioxide and carry out life-cycle analysis of energy utilization for products made. (A) (B) (i) and (ii) (i) and (iii) (ii) and (iii) All of the above
