DO NOT OPEN THIS TEST UNTIL YOU ARE TOLD TO BEGIN

  • Work Part A first. You have 90 minutes to complete all four problems.
  • After you have completed Part A, you may take a break.
  • Then work Part B. You have 90 minutes to complete both problems.
  • Show all your work. Partial credit will be given.
  • Start each question on a new sheet of paper. Be sure to put your name in the upper right-hand corner of each page, along with the question number and the page number/total pages for this problem. For example: Doe, Jamie; A1 – 1/3.
  • A hand-held calculator may be used. Its memory must be cleared of data and programs. You may use only the basic functions found on a simple scientific calculator. Calculators may not be shared. Cell phones, PDA’s, or cameras may not be used during the exam or while the exam papers are present. You may not use any tables, books, or collections of formulas.
  • Questions with the same point value are not necessarily of the same difficulty.
  • Do not discuss the contents of this exam with anyone until after March 20th.
  • Good luck!

Условие

In this problem, we present a simple model of seasonal temperature variation. We ignore temperature and illumination changes between day and night, considering only daily average values. We also ignore all forms of heat transfer other than radiation, including any heat transfer between areas of the surface of the Earth. Finally, we ignore the effects of the atmosphere and clouds.

We therefore consider a patch of ground with heat capacity per unit area cc and emissivity ϵ\epsilon, illuminated by light of varying intensity II. The patch therefore has a varying temperature TT.

a. (8 т.)

Develop an equation relating TT, dTdt\frac{dT}{dt}, II, cc, ϵ\epsilon, and the Stefan-Boltzmann constant σ\sigma.

b.–f.

Figure 1 shows the yearly variation in average daily sunlight intensity on Earth for various latitudes. The variation is not sinusoidal, but for temperate latitudes, it may be approximated as a sinusoid. In particular, Figure 2 shows the variation in College Park, Maryland (at 39∘39^\circ N latitude), together with a good sinusoidal approximation. Therefore, we assume that the intensity has the form I=I0+I1sin⁡(ωt)I=I_0+I_1\sin(\omega t). If the annual variation in temperature is small compared to the absolute temperature, we will likewise have T=T0+T1sin⁡(ωt−ϕ)T=T_0+T_1\sin(\omega t-\phi), where by hypothesis T1≪T0T_1\ll T_0.

Figure2: College Park average daily intensity and sinusoidal fit.

Figure 2: Average daily sun intensity in College Park, with sinusoidal fit. The fit has equation 0.244−0.126sin⁡(2πt)0.244-0.126\sin(2\pi t).

b. Show that your previous result now implies an equation of the form

A+Bsin⁡(ωt−ϕ)+Ccos⁡(ωt−ϕ)=I0+I1sin⁡(ωt)(1)A+B\sin(\omega t-\phi)+C\cos(\omega t-\phi)=I_0+I_1\sin(\omega t)\qquad (1)

and provide the expressions for AA, BB, and CC in terms of T0T_0, T1T_1, cc, ϵ\epsilon, σ\sigma, and ω\omega. [14 т.]

c. Using equation (1), find expressions for AA, BB, and CC in terms of I0I_0, I1I_1, and ϕ\phi. [9 т.]

d. Combine your results to obtain a simple relationship between the relative amplitude of intensity fluctuations I1/I0I_1/I_0, the relative amplitude of temperature fluctuations T1/T0T_1/T_0, and the phase shift ϕ\phi. [7 т.]

e. Plot on graph paper the predicted difference between summer and winter temperatures in Kelvin vs. the number of months between the summer solstice (day of maximum sunlight intensity) and the hottest day of the year. Use the values for I0I_0 and I1I_1 given for College Park in Figure 2, and assume a mean temperature of 283 K. Show work indicating the method of your calculations for the numbers plotted on the graph. [9 т.]

f. Actual temperature data for College Park is shown in Figure 3. Does the model provide a reasonable fit to the data? Briefly justify your answer. (The summer solstice occurs on June 21.)
