A Solid Metal Sphere Is 15

question 26

Short Answer

A solid metal sphere is 15.0 cm in diameter and has surface of uniform color. When its surface is at 112°C, you measure that it radiates energy at a rate of 71.3 W. What is the emissivity of the surface of this object? Any heat that enters the sphere from the outside environment is negligible. The Stefan-Boltzmann constant is 5.670 × 10^-8 W/m² · K⁴.
