In this problem you will consider the balance of
thermal energy radiated and absorbed by a person.
Assume that the person is wearing only a skimpy
bathing suit of negligible area. As a rough
approximation, the area of a human body may be
considered to be that of the sides of a cylinder
length L = 2.0 m and circumference C = 0.8 m.
For the Stefan-Boltzmann constant use
o = 5.67 x 10-8 W/m2 /K4.

lated metal wire of unit length with the initial temperature given by
u(x,0) = 6 sin?(7x) cos (Tx).

- A dilute gas expands quasi-statically from 0.3 to 4.3 L at a constant temperature of 290 K. Follow the steps below to calculate the number of molecules in the gas, with some additional information provided. Hint For an isothermal expansion, does the pressure of the gas remain constant? Hint for (a) Answer depends on additional information not given. Yes, it remains constant. No, it does not remain constant. Correct If the pressure does not remain constant, we cannot calculate the whole amount of work with W=PΔVW=PΔV. Instead, we need to start out with the infinitesimal work done for infinitesimal volume change (dW=PdVdW=PdV) and integrate over the interval of volume change to calculate the total work done (this is also same as the area under the curve in P-V diagram).
