Use the Planck function to estimate thermal emission in
particular wavelength ranges.
Clicker Q: Estimate the total flux ) emitted by a 300K blackbody
between 500 and 1000cm^(-1)
A) 80Wm^(-2)
B) 120Wm^(-2)
C) 220Wm^(-2)
D) 250Wm^(-2)
E) 340Wm^(-2)
Method: graphically count the
area under the curve. What is the
area of one grid box?
