(choose chapter or problem)

Consider the spherical satellite of 12.130.Instead of the entire satellite being coated with amaterial that is spectrally selective, half of the satel-lite is covered with a diffuse gray coating character-ized by ?1?0.6. The other half of the satellite iscoated with a diffuse gray material with ?2?0.3.(a) Determine the steady-state satellite temperaturewhen the satellite is on the bright side of the earthwith the high-absorptivity coating facing the sun.Determine the steady-state satellite temperaturewhen the low-absorptivity coating faces the sun.Hint: Assume one hemisphere of the satellite isirradiated by the sun and the opposite hemisphereis irradiated by the earth.(b) Determine the steady-state satellite temperaturewhen the satellite is on the dark side of the earthwith the high- absorptivity coating facing theearth. Determine the steady-state satellite tem-perature when the low- absorptivity coating facesthe earth.(c) Identify a scheme to minimize the temperaturevariations of the satellite as it travels between thebright and dark sides of the earth
