Spheres of 40-mm diameter heated to a uniform temperature of 400°C are suddenly removed from the oven and placed in a forced-air bath operating at 25°C with a convection coefficient of 300 W/m² K on the sphere surfaces. The thermophysical properties of the sphere material are p = 3000 kg/m³, c = 850 J/kg-K, and k = 15 W/m.K. (a) How long must the spheres remain in the air bath for 80% of the thermal energy to be removed?

![**Problem 5.78**
Spheres of 40-mm diameter, heated to a uniform temperature of 400°C, are suddenly removed from the oven and placed in a forced-air bath operating at 25°C with a convection coefficient of 300 W/m²·K on the sphere surfaces. The thermophysical properties of the sphere material are:
- Density \( \rho = 3000 \, \text{kg/m}^3 \)
- Specific heat capacity \( c = 850 \, \text{J/kg·K} \)
- Thermal conductivity \( k = 15 \, \text{W/m·K} \)
**(a)** How long must the spheres remain in the air bath for 80% of the thermal energy to be removed?
**(b)** The spheres are then placed in a packing carton that prevents further heat transfer to the environment. What uniform temperature will the spheres eventually reach?](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fcefded0e-d335-46f0-95d7-57f43a63dc1b%2F6f6e976d-cf0b-455d-8d7b-6b9867cffed0%2Fxaxjtr5_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
