  b. 30.0
  d. Critical angle does not exist.

Question 2

The inside of a house is at 20C on an early morning when the temperature outside is 15C. The next morning the inside temperature is the same, but the outside temperature is now 5C. How much does the energy per unit time lost by conduction through the walls, windows, doors, etc., change for the house from the first morning to the second one.
 a. Since the inside temperature stays the same, the loss is the same both days.
  b. The loss reduces to 1/3.
  c. The loss triples.
  d. The loss increases by 5/278 since we need to use the Kelvin scale for this calculation.

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).
