Effect of radiation on perceived temperature a completely enclosed room, box, etc. In the winter, the amount of heat loss from a person, when the inner surfaces of the room were 10 degrees Celsius, was found to be 152 Watts. (Q ̇=(0.95)(5.67x〖10〗^(-8) )(1.4)[(30+273)^4-(10+273)^4 ]=152) ̇ In the summer, the amount of heat loss from a person, when the inner surfaces of the room were 25 degrees Celsius, was found to be 40.9 Watts. (Q ̇=(0.95)(5.67x〖10〗^(-8) )(1.4)[(30+273)^4-(25+273)^4 ]=40.9) ̇ Thermal radiation is the form of radiation emitted by bodies because of their temperature. It differs from other forms of electromagnetic radiation such as x-rays, gamma rays, microwaves,
Greenhouse effect in about 2 billion years as solar luminosity increases". Titan has an anti-greenhouse effect, in that its atmosphere absorbs solar radiation but is relatively transparent to outgoing infrared radiation. Pluto is also colder than would be expected because evaporation of nitrogen cools it. Greenhouse effect The greenhouse effect is the process by which radiation from a planet's atmosphere warms the planet's surface to a temperature above what it would be without its atmosphere. If a planet's atmosphere contains radiatively active gases (i.e., greenhouse gases) they will radiate energy in all directions. Part of this radiation is directed towards the surface,
