An electric resistance heater is embedded in a long cylinder of diameter 30 mm. when water with a temperature of 25°c and veloc

ity 1 m/s flows crosswise over the cylinder, the power per unit length required to maintain the surface at a uniform temperature of 80°c is 38 kw/m. when air, also at 25°c, but with a velocity of 10 m/s is flowing, the power per unit length required to maintain the same surface temperature is 400 w/m. assume unit length. calculate and compare the convection coefficients for the flows of water and air. according to your calculations, which is a better convective heat transfer media, air or water?

KNOWN: Long, 30mm-diameter cylinder with embedded electrical heater; power required to maintain a specified surface temperature for water and air flows.
 FIND: Convection coefficients for the water and air flow convection processes, hw and ha, respectively.
 ASSUMPTIONS: Flow is cross-wise over cylinder which is very long in the direction normal to flow.
 The convection heat rate from the cylinder per unit length of the cylinder has the form
 q' = h*(pi*D)*(Ts-Tinf)
 and solving for the heat transfer convection coefficient, find
 Water
 hw = q'/((pi*D)*(Ts-Tinf))
 hw = (38*10^3 W/m) / ((pi*(0.030m))*(80-25)C)= 7330.77314  W/m^2K
 Air
 ha = (400W/m) / ((pi*(0.030m))*(80-25)C)=<span> 77.166033 </span> W/m^2K
 COMMENTS: Note that the air velocity is 10 times that of the water flow, yet
hw ≈ 95 × ha.
 These values for the convection coefficient are typical for forced convection heat transfer with liquids and gases
 Watter is a better convective heat transfer media than air

During an observation, it was noticed that light diffracts as it passes through small slits in a barrier. What does this evidenc
Lynna [10]

Answer:

It reveals that light is a wave

Explanation:

Diffraction is the property of a wave in which there is a bending of the wave about the corners of an obstacle or aperture into the geometrical shadow of the obstacle or aperture.

This simply implies that a wave bends or spreads out when it passes through openings. Since the light diffracts through small slits and diffraction has been shown to occur in water waves and sound waves, this property of diffraction can only be characteristic of a wave and thus, this evidence reveals that light is a wave.

The escape velocity is defined to be the minimum speed with which an object of mass m must move to escape from the gravitational
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

v = √2G M_{earth} / R

Explanation:

For this problem we use energy conservation, the energy initiated is potential and kinetic and the final energy is only potential (infinite r)

        Eo = K + U = ½ m1 v² - G m1 m2 / r1

        Ef = - G m1 m2 / r2

When the body is at a distance R> Re, for the furthest point (r2) let's call it Rinf

       Eo = Ef

       ½ m1v² - G m1 M_{earth} / R = - G m1 M_{earth} / R

      v² = 2G M_{earth} (1 / R - 1 / Rinf)

If we do Rinf = infinity     1 / Rinf = 0

       v = √2G M_{earth} / R

      Ef = = - G m1 m2 / R

The mechanical energy is conserved  

 

      Em = -G m1  M_{earth} / R

      Em = - G m1  M_{earth} / R

     R = int        ⇒  Em = 0
