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

vredina [299]
If the soloist produces "x" decibels and the 10-person choir produces "y" decibels, combined they will produce "x+y" decibels. 

The second choir has 90 additional singers, we base our description on the first choir. If a 10-person choir produces "x+y" decibels, then the 90 person choir produces 10 (x+y) decibels.

Fantom [35]

Answer:

Explanation:In Mendel's time, many people thought that offspring inherited a combination of traits from their parents. For example, they thought that an animal with white fur and an animal with black fur would produce pups with gray fur. This is called the theory of combined inheritance. How did Mendel show that the combination theory was wrong?

Chapter 36, Problem 007 Light of wavelength 586 nm is incident on a narrow slit. The angle between the first diffraction minimum
svp [43]

Answer:

d =4.77\times 10^{-5}\ m

Explanation:

given

wavelength of light  λ = 479 nm

                                   = 479 x 10⁻⁹ m

the angle

θ = 1.15 / 2 = 0.575°                

using                                              

condition for diffraction minimum ,

         d sinθ = m λ                        

for first minimum m = 1

       d sinθ = λ                      

therefore ,

slit width                                  

d =\dfrac{\lambda}{sin\theta}          

d =\dfrac{479\times 10^{-9}}{sin 0.575^0}

d =\dfrac{479\times 10^{-9}}{0.01}              

d =4.77\times 10^{-5}\ m                                                    

hence, the width of the slit is equal to d =4.77\times 10^{-5}\ m

Why are different colors used to represent the floor of the ocean?
ZanzabumX [31]
The red, yellow, and green wavelengths of sunlight are absorbed by water molecules in the ocean. ... In coastal areas, runoff from rivers, resuspension of sand and silt from the bottom by tides, waves and storms and a number of other substances can change the color of the near-shore waters.
