Heat Transfer 1. If you have a piece of extruded polystyrene insulation that has an R-value of 5 hr ft?.°F/Btu per inch [or RSI = 0.8805 (m² · K)/W)]. How many inches of extruded polystyrene do you need in your wall if you want it to have an R-value of 20 hr ft2.°F/Btu [or RSI = 3.522 (m² · K)/W)]? L= 4" 2. What is the transfer of vibrational energy due to collisions between neighbouring atoms and molecules in a solid called? a. Conduction b. Convection c. Radiation d. Latent Heat Radiant Energy 3. Absorptance is a measure of the relative amount of radiant energy absorbed by a surface. Does a shiny and smooth polished aluminum surface have a high absorptance (closer to 1), or a low absortptance (closer to 0)? Absorptance is a ratio of the radiation absorbed to the radiation received, and thus is dimensionless. What about reflectance? Are absorptance and reflectance related? 4. Emissivity is a measure of the relative amount of radiant energy emitted by a surface. Does a shiny and smooth…

Discuss the truth or falsehood of the following statements: a) "The rate of change of the cross-sectional area of the tub with respect to time is a nonzero constant." b) "The rate of change of the height of the water with respect to time is negative."
Example: A product developer is interested in reducing the drying time of a primer paint. Two formulations of the paint are tested; formulation 1 is the standard chemistry, and formulation 2 has a new drying ingredient that should reduce the drying time. From experience, it is known that the standard deviation of drying time is 8 minutes, and this inherent variability should be unaffected by the addition of the new ingredient. Ten specimens are painted with formulation 1, and another 10 specimens are painted with formulation 2; the 20 specimens are painted in random order. The two sample average drying times are 121 minutes and 112 minutes, respectively. What conclusions can the product developer draw about the effectiveness of the new ingredient, using a-0.05?
Air enters a diffuser operating at steady state at 540°R, 15 lbf/in.², with a velocity of 600 ft/s, and exits with a velocity of 60 ft/s. The ratio of the exit area to the inlet area is 8. Assuming the ideal gas model for the air and ignoring heat transfer, determine the temperature, in °R, and pressure, in lbf/in.², at the exit. Part A * Your answer is incorrect. Assuming the ideal gas model for the air and ignoring heat transfer, determine the temperature at the exit, in °R. T₂ = i -1244.63 °R

Imagine a parcel of air that has a temperature of 40°C at the surface and a dew-point temperature of 20°C at the lifting condensation level. Assume that the environmental lapse rate is 8°C per 1000 meters, the dry adiabatic lapse rate is 10°C per 1000 meters, and the wet adiabatic lapse rate is 6°C/1000 meters. In Table C , record the environmental temperature, the parcel temperature, and the temperature difference (parcel temperature minus the environmental temperature), and then determine whether the atmosphere is stable or unstable at each height. a. What is the height of the lifting condensation level? b. Does this example describe absolute stability, absolute instability, or conditional instability? c. Would you forecast thunderstorms under these conditions?
