Chapter 1, Problem 1.31P

A spherical communications satellite, 2 m in diameter, is placed in orbit around the earth. The satellite generates 1000 W of internal power from a small nuclear generator. If the surface of the satellite has an emittance of 0.3, and is shaded from solar radiation by the earth, estimate its surface temperature.

The two disks A and B have a mass of 4 kg and 6 kg, respectively. They collide with the initial velocities shown. The coefficient of restitution is e = 0.75. Suppose that (VA)1 = 6 m/s, (VB)₁ = 7 m/s. (Figure 1) Determine the magnitude of the velocity of A just after impact. Determine the angle between the x axis and the velocity of A just after impact, measured clockwise from the negative x axis. Determine the magnitude of the velocity of B just after impact. Determine the angle between the x axis and the velocity of B just after impact, measured clockwise from the positive x axis. (VB)1 B (VA)1 60° Line of impact
A hot plane surface is maintained at 100°C, and it is exposed to air at 25°C.The combined heat transfer coefficient between the surface and the air is 25W/m²·K. (same as above). In this task, you are asked to design fins to cool asurface by attaching 3 cm-long, 0.25 cm-diameter aluminum pin fins (thermalconductivity, k = 237 W/m·K) with a center-to-center distance of 0.6 cm. (Tip:do not correct the length). Determine the rate of heat transfer from thefinned structure to the air for a 1 m x 1 m section of the plate.
Heat is generated uniformly in a 4 cm-diameter, 16-cm long solid bar (k=2.4 W/m-K). The temperaturesat the center and at the surface of the bar are measured to be 210 oC and 45 oC, respectively. Calculatethe rate of heat generation within the bar. Solve the relevant energy balance equation and the boundaryconditions to calculate the rate of heat generation within the bar. (6 pts)
