Answer:

28 .55 K

Explanation:

Ts = To [ fL ( 1 - A) / a^2 ( 1 - g ) ] ^ 1/4

   

     = 278.5 K [ 1 ( 1 - 0.15) / 1.52 ^2 ( 1 - 0.086) ] ^ 1/4

     = 278.5 K [ 1 ( 0.85) / 2.3 ( 0.914 ) ^ 1/4

    = 278.5 K [ 0.85 / 2.10 ] ^ 1/4

     = 278.5 K [ 0.405] ^ 1/4      =   278.5 K [ 0.41 ] ^1/4

     = 278.5 K [ 0.1025]

     = 28.54625 K

     = 28. 55 K

I am sorry if its wrong because this was something totally new for me. However , i gave it a try .
