Answer:

The convective heat transfer coefficient of the fluid is 170.4 watts per square meter-degree Celsius.

Explanation:

The Nusselt number (Nu) is a dimensionless factor which compares the sensitivity of a fluid due to convection with those due to conduction:

Nu = \frac{h\cdot L_{c}}{k} (Eq. 1)

Where:

h - Convective heat transfer coefficient, measured in watts per square meter-degree Celsius.

k - Conductive heat transfer coefficient, measured in watts per meter-degree Celsius.

L_{c} - Characteristic length, measured in meters.

In addition, the characteristic length of a cylinder is defined by the following formula:

L_{c} = \frac{\pi\cdot r^{3}\cdot l}{2\pi\cdot r^{2}+2\pi\cdot r \cdot l} (Eq. 2)

Where:

r - Radius of the cylinder, measured in meters.

l - Length of the cylinder, measured in meters.

If we know that Nu = 14.2, k = 0.028\,\frac{W}{m\cdot ^{\circ}C}, r = 0.005\,m and l = 0.07\,m, then the convective heat coefficient is:

From (Eq. 2):

L_{c} = \frac{\pi\cdot (0.005\,m)^{2}\cdot (0.07\,m)}{2\pi\cdot (0.005\,m)^{2}+2\pi\cdot (0.005\,m)\cdot (0.07\,m)}

L_{c} = \frac{7}{3000}\,m

And by (Eq. 1):

h = \frac{k\cdot Nu}{L_{c}}

h = \frac{\left(0.028\,\frac{W}{m\cdot ^{\circ}C} \right)\cdot (14.2)}{\frac{7}{3000}\,m }

h = 170.4\,\frac{W}{m^{2}\cdot ^{\circ}C}

The convective heat transfer coefficient of the fluid is 170.4 watts per square meter-degree Celsius.

Consider the following geometric solids.

Before answering this question, first we have to understand the effect of ratio of surface area to volume on the rate of diffusion.

The rate of diffusion for a body having larger surface area as compared to the ratio of surface area to volume will be more than a body having less surface area. Mathematically it can written as-

                           V∝ R            [ where v is the rate of diffusion and r is the ratio of surface area to volume]

As per the question,the ratio of surface area to volume for a sphere is given 0.08m^{-1}

The surface area to volume ratio for right circular cylinder is given 2.1m^{-1}

Hence, it is obvious that the ratio is more for right circular cylinder.As the rate diffusion is directly proportional to the surface area to volume ratio,hence rate of diffusion will be more for right circular cylinder.

Hence the correct option is B. The rate of diffusion would be faster for the right cylinder.

Money is not a medium of exchange for acquiring goods and services.<br> a. True<br> b. False
bonufazy [111]

False, money is a medium of exchange to acquire goods and services.

Depending on what you want to cancel, it is advisable to pay with cash or bank transfer.

Also, it is important to know that each country has its own exchange currency.

In the United States, the currency is the dollar.

In Europe, the currency is the euro.

Answer:

b. False

The speed on a car speedometer. Is it speed or velocity? Explain Why
Sliva [168]
Velocity is a speed AND a direction.
When you turn a corner, or go around a curve in the road, your
direction changes, but the reading on the dial doesn't change.
So it can't be showing velocity.  It must be showing only speed.
That's probably a big part of the reason why it's called a speedometer
and not a velocimeter.
