    Estimate Temperature of Mars Using Sun's Heat

    We finally talked about this a little in class today, I think. The teacher put up an equation for radiation. Iemitted=Q/t=eA(sigma)T4 Is this part of what I need to use to finish the question? I know what sigma is and e but I don't know what A is.

    Pressure in a Lake: Find Depth for 4.5 atm

    Homework Statement At the surface of a freshwater lake the air pressure is 1 atm. At what depth under water in the lake is the water pressure 4.5 atm?Homework Equations P=a+hgp h=(P-a)/(g*p)The Attempt at a Solution h=(4.5x105 - 1x105)/(9.8*1000)=35.71 I also did the equation with 9,000 Pa...
