The coefficients of absorption and reflection of the surface of a thin plate are \( 0.74 \) and \( 0.22 \) respectively. If \( 184 cal \) of radiant heat is incident on the surface of the plate, find the quantities of heat (i) absorbed (ii) reflected (iii) transmitted. (4 marks)

Answer»

Given, the coefficient at absorption a = 0.74

The coefficient at reflection = r = 0.22

We know that

a + r +t = 1

Where 

a = absorption coefficient

r = reflection coefficient

t = transmit coefficient

0.74 + 0.22 + t = 1

t = 1 - 0.96

t = 0.04

i) Quantities of heat absorption 

Qa = a x Q

Qa = 0.74 x 184

Qa = 136.16 cal

ii) Quantities of heat reflection 

Qr = r x Q

Qr = 0.22 x 184

Qr = 40.08 cal

iii) Quantities of heat transmitted 

Qt = t x Q

= 0.04 x 184

Qt = 7.36 cal
