On a clear night there is radiation from earth’s surface to space. On such a night, the water particles on the plant leaves radiate to the sky whose temperature may be taken as 200 K. The water particles receive heat by convection from the surrounding air, the convection heat transfer coefficient has a value of 30 W/m2 K. If the water should not freeze, make calculations for the air temperature
