Stephan-Boltzmann Law Help for Science Fair Project - Needed Now!

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a science fair project focused on the Stefan-Boltzmann Law, specifically calculating energy flow and energy carried by visible and infrared photons. The project involves using temperature data from colored squares of construction paper, with specific temperatures provided in Celsius and Kelvin. The formula P=σAT^4 is highlighted as essential for calculating energy flow, where σ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant. The participant expresses confusion about how to start the calculations and seeks guidance on applying the law to their data. Assistance is requested to move forward with the project.

Hello, I am in DIRE need of help with my science fair project and am completely stuck. All/most relevant information should be able to be found here: http://sciencebuddies.org/science-f...OjEsaWE6UGh5cyxwOjUscmlkOjEyNDE1MzMw&from=TSW

1. I am stuck on number 7, "Now that you have the data, calculate the energy flow and the energy carried by the visible and infrared photons." The squares of construction paper were 4*4 inches. Data for the temperature is as follows (Celsius; Kelvin)
Red: 38.4; 311.4
Blue: 40.4; 313.4
Yellow: 37.4; 310.4
White: 36.6; 309.6
Black:45.1; 318.1
2. Its something to do with the Stephan-Boltzmann Law but I'm not entirely sure
3. I have no clue where to even BEGIN on a solution
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Anyone? :(
 
I think you need to use P=σAT4, it gives you the energy flow from a surface with temperature T.
σ is Stefan–Boltzmann constant and is equal to 5.67x10-8 J/sm2K4
 
Thread 'Help with Time-Independent Perturbation Theory "Good" States Proof'
(Disclaimer: this is not a HW question. I am self-studying, and this felt like the type of question I've seen in this forum. If there is somewhere better for me to share this doubt, please let me know and I'll transfer it right away.) I am currently reviewing Chapter 7 of Introduction to QM by Griffiths. I have been stuck for an hour or so trying to understand the last paragraph of this proof (pls check the attached file). It claims that we can express Ψ_{γ}(0) as a linear combination of...
