The reason why a metal doorknob at 50° F feels cooler than a wooden door at 50° F
A computer chip inside an orbiting satellite heats up during operation. Since there is no air in the satellite the only cooling will be by radiation. The chip is 1.50 cm wide by 2.50 cm long with a negligible thickness, and assume that the chip radiates heat evenly from both the top and bottom surfaces. The chip has an emissivity of 0.600 and dissipates 0.410 Watts during usage. Assuming that the inside temperature of the satellite is held at a constant -100.0°C; calculate the surface temperature of the chip in units of Celsius.

How long will it take for 1.10 kg of ice at -5.0°C to melt (to water at 0°C) in the cooler if the outside temperature is 34.0°C? Assume that ice temperature increases linearly from -5.0°C to 0°C. Neglect any temperature change of the air in the cooler. Data: Specific heat of ice is 2050 J/(kg-K). Laten heat of fusion of water is 3.34×105 J/kg.arrow_forward
- A pure aluminum plate is part of a heat shield for a manufacturing process. The aluminum plate has a thickness of 3.60 mm. The aluminum plate is insulated (on one side only) with Board and Slab insulation (Cellular glass, density of 145 kg/m3) 6.00 cm thick; which in turn is covered with a layer of Particle board (high density) 1.00 cm thick (The composite wall goes: aluminum/cellular glass insulation/Particle board). The temperature on the exposed surface of the aluminum plate is measured to be 78.0°C, while the outside surface of the Particle board is exposed to convection, T = 22.0°C, h = 17.0 W/(m2-K). The plate has dimensions of 11.50 m long by 3.50 m tall. • Draw and label a sketch of this system. Includedimensions, known temperatures, etc. • Draw and completely label the corresponding 1-Dsteady-state conduction resistor diagram. • Determine the heat transfer rate through thiscomposite plate. • Calculate the temperature at the Cellular Glassinsulation/Particle board interface.arrow_forwardThe coefficient of linear expansion of aluminum is 24 × 10-6 K-1 and the coefficient of volume expansion of olive oil is 0.68 × 10-3 K-1. A novice cook, in preparation for deep-frying some potatoes, fills a 1.00-L aluminum pot to the brim and heats the oil and the pot from an initial temperature of 15°C to 190°C. To his consternation some olive oil spills over the top.

If the fever is brought down to 98 °F in 20 minutes, what is the average rate of extra evaporation caused, by the drug. Assume the evaporation mechanism to be the only way by which heat is lost. The mass of the child is 30 kg.

- Consider a person standing in a room at 20°C with an exposed surface area of 1.7 m2. The deep body temperature of the human body is 37°C, and the thermal conductivity of the human tissue near the skin is about 0.3 W/m K. The body is losing heat at a rate of 150 W by natural convection and radiation to the surroundings. Taking the body temperature 0,5 cm beneath the skin to be 37°C, determine the skin temperature of the person.arrow_forwardThe air temperature above coastal areas is profoundly influenced by the large specific heat of water. One reason is that the energy released when 1 cubic meter of water cools by 1.0°C will raise the temperature of an enormously larger volume of air by 1.0°C. Estimate that volume of air. The specific heat of air is approximately 1.0 kJ/kg ? °C. Take the density of air to be 1.3 kg/m3.arrow_forwardDuring an all-night cram session, a student heats up a 0.786 liter (0.786 x 10-³ m³) glass (Pyrex) beaker of cold coffee.

- During an all-night cram session, a student heats up a 0.604 liter (0.604 x 10- 3 m3) glass (Pyrex) beaker of cold coffee. Initially, the temperature is 16.4 °C, and the beaker is filled to the brim. A short time later when the student returns, the temperature has risen to 95.6 °C.

How much coffee (in cubic meters) has spilled out of the beaker?arrow_forwardWe often cut a watermelon in half and put it into the freezer to cool it quickly. But usually we forget to check on it and end up having a watermelon with a frozen layer on the top. To avoid this potential problem a person wants to set the timer such that it will go off when the temperature of the exposed surface of the watermelon drops to 3°C. Consider a 25-cm-diameter spherical watermelon that is cut into two equal parts and put into a freezer at -12°C. Initially, the entire watermelon is at a uniform temperature of 25°C, and the heat transfer coefficient on the surfaces is 22 W/m2·K. Assuming the watermelon to have the properties of water, determine how long it will take for the center of the exposed cut surfaces of the watermelon to drop to 3°C.arrow_forwardDuring an all-night cram session, a student heats up a 0.424 liter (0.424 x 10- 3 m3) glass (Pyrex) beaker of cold coffee. Initially, the temperature is 19.1 °C, and the beaker is filled to the brim. A short time later when the student returns, the temperature has risen to 90.2 °C. The coefficient of volume expansion of coffee is the same as that of water. How much coffee (in cubic meters) has spilled out of the beaker?
