Calculate for the vertical cross section moment of inertia for both Orientations 1 and 2 of a 1 x 1.5 in. horizontal hollow rectangular beam with wall thickness of t = 0.0625 in.
Use the equation: I = ((bh^3)/12) - (((b-2t)(h-2t)^3)/12)
Please answer 'yes' or 'no' and 'is' or 'is not' for the following:
Consider a large 23-cm-thick stainless steel plate (k = 15.1 W/m-K) in which heat is generated uniformly at a rate of 5 x 105
W/m³. Both sides of the plate are exposed to an environment at 30°C with a heat transfer coefficient of 60 W/m²K.
The highest temperature will occur at surfaces of plate while the lowest temperature will occur at the midplane.
Yes or No
Yes
No
