Street light in many communities are sodium vapor lamps. These lamps visually have an orange-yellow tint. The visible emission spectrum for sodium shows that two prominent bands are detected within the visible color change. These light waves are both yellow and have wavelengths of about 590nm. This explains why the light produced from sodium vapor lamps would appear yellow and not white. in comparison, mercury vapor lamps produce a blue-colored light due to intense light emission from the mercury atoms that have a wavelength of about 434nm. Without any calculation, which element would you expect to produce higher energy photons in the visible part of spectrum?

Clothing made of several thin layers of fabric with trapped air in between, often called ski clothing, is commonly used in cold climates because it is light, fashionable, and a very effective thermal insulator. so it is no surprise that such clothing has largely replaced thickand heavy old-fashioned coats. (a) consider a jacket made of five layers of 0.1-mm-thick synthetic fabric (k = 0.13 w/m·°c) with 1.5-mm-thick air space (k = 0.026 w/m·°c) between the layers. assuming the inner surface temperature of the jacket to be 28°c and the surface area to be 1.25 m2, determine the rate of heat loss through the jacket when the temperature of the outdoors is 0°c and the heat transfer coefficient at the outer surface is 25 w/m2·°c. (b) what would your response be if the jacket is made of a single layer of 0.5-mm-thick synthetic fabric? what should be the thickness of a wool fabric (k = 0.035 w/m·°c) if the person is to achieve the same level of thermal comfort wearing a thick wool coat instead of a five-layer ski jacket?
