Options

  1. A0.150.15
  2. B0.130.13
  3. C0.100.10
  4. D0.090.09

Correct answer

C. 0.100.10

Step-by-step solution

Let the total incident heat be QQ.

The radiant heat absorbed by the body is 75%75\% of the incident heat. Therefore, the coefficient of absorption is a=0.75a = 0.75.

The coefficient of reflection is given as r=0.15r = 0.15.

According to the conservation of energy, the sum of the coefficients of absorption, reflection, and transmission is equal to 11.

a+r+t=1a + r + t = 1

Substituting the given values:

0.75+0.15+t=10.75 + 0.15 + t = 1

0.90+t=10.90 + t = 1

t=1−0.90=0.10t = 1 - 0.90 = 0.10

The coefficient of transmission is 0.100.10.

Answer: 0.100.10
