Two 1.5 m-square and parallel flat plates are 30 cm apart. Plate A1 is maintained at a temperature of 1100 K and A2 at 500 K. The emissivities of the plates are 0.5 and 0.8, respectively. Considering the surroundings black at 0 K and including multiple inter-reflections, determine (a) the net radiant exchange between the plates and (b) the heat input required by surface A1 to maintain its temperature. The outer-facing surfaces of the plates are adiabatic.

GIVEN

For an atom of hydrogen without the effects of an external magnetic field, an electron transition from the 3P subshell to the 2P subshell is called a forbidden transition. Why is this so?

a. Electrons in hydrogen are forbidden from transitioning in that way due to peculiarities unique to solutions of Schrödinger's equation for hydrogen. b.The normal Zeeman effect prohibits certain transitions from occurring. c. Since the electron at low energies must pass through the nucleus, nuclear effects prevent certain transitions to orbits through the nucleus. d.An atom that changes energy through transitioning must either absorb or emit a photon.
