Problem 127CP BIO A Walk in the Sun. Consider a poor lost soul walking at 5 km/h on a hot day in the desert, wearing only a bathing suit. This person’s skin temperature tends to rise due to four mechanisms: (i) energy is generated by metabolic reactions in the body at a rate of 280 W, and almost all of this energy is converted to heat that flows to the skin; (ii) heat is delivered to the skin by convection from the outside air at a rate equal to k’Askin (Tair - Tskin), where k’ is 54 J/h ? Co ? m2, the exposed skin area A skin is 1.5 m2, the air temperature Tair is 47o C, and the skin temperature Tskin is 36o C; (iii) the skin absorbs radiant energy from the sun at a rate of 1400 W/m2; (iv) the skin absorbs radiant energy from the environment, which has temperature 47o C. (a) Calculate the net rate (in watts) at which the person’s skin is heated by all four of these mechanisms. Assume that the emissivity of the skin is e = 1 and that the skin temperature is initially 36o C. Which mechanism is the most important? (b) At what rate (in L/h) must perspiration evaporate from this person’s skin to maintain a constant skin temperature? (The heat of vaporization of water at 36o C is 2.42 X 106 J/kg.) (c) Suppose instead the person is protected by light-colored clothing so that the exposed skin area is only 0.45 m2. What rate of perspiration is required now?

Problem 30E On-Demand Water Heaters. Conventional hot-water heaters consist of a tank of water maintained at a fixed temperature. The hot water is to be used when needed.

Some utility companies are encouraging the use of ?on-demand water heaters (also known as ?flash heaters?), which consist of heating units to heat the water as you use it. No water tank is involved, so no heat is wasted.

Problem 117P BIO Jogging in the Heat of the Day. You have probably seen people jogging in extremely hot weather. There are good reasons not to do this! When jogging strenuously, an average runner of mass 68 kg and surface area 1.85 m2 produces energy at a rate of up to 1300 W, 80% of which is converted to heat. The jogger radiates heat but actually absorbs more from the hot air than he radiates away. At such high levels of activity, the skin’s temperature can be elevated to around 33°C instead of the usual 30°C. (Ignore conduction, which would bring even more heat into his body.) The only way for the body to get rid of this extra heat is by evaporating water (sweating). (a) How much heat per second is produced just by the act of jogging?

Problem 122P Why Do the Seasons Lag? In the northern hemisphere, June 21 (the summer solstice) is both the longest day of the year and the day on which the sun’s rays strike the earth most vertically, hence delivering the greatest amount of heat to the surface. Yet the hottest summer weather usually occurs about a month or so later. Let us see why this is the case. Because of the large specific heat of water, the oceans are slower to warm up than the land (and also slower to cool off in winter). In addition to perusing pertinent information in the tables included in this book, it is useful to know that approximately two-thirds of the earth’s surface is ocean com-posed of salt water having a specific heat of 3890 J/kg · K and the oceans, on the average, are 4000 m deep. Typically, an average of 1050 W/m2 of solar energy falls on the earth’s surface, and the oceans absorb essentially all of the light that strikes them. However most of that light is absorbed in the upper 100 m of the Depths below that do not change temperature seasonally. Assume that the sunlight falls on the surface for only 12 hours per day that the ocean retains all the heat it absorbs. What will be the rise in temperature of the upper 100 m of the oceans during the month following the summer solstice? Does this seem to be large enough to be perceptible?
