Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
As we know that heat transfer take place from high temperature body to low temperature body.
In the given problem ,the temperature of the air is high as compare to the temperature of can of bear ,so the heat transfer will take place from air to can of bear and at the last stage when temperature of can of bear will become to the temperature of air then heat transfer will be stop.Because temperature of the both body will become at the same and this stage is called thermal equilibrium.
So an office worker claim is correct.
Complete Question
Air at 40C flows over a 2 m long flat plate with a free stream velocity of 7m/s. Assume the width of the plate (into the paper) is 0.5 m. If the plate is at a co temperature of 100C,find:
The total heat transfer rate from the plate to the air
Answer:

Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Air Temperature 
Length 
Velocity 
Width 
Constant temperature 
Generally the equation for Total heat Transfer is mathematically given by

Where
h=Convective heat transfer coefficient

Therefore




Answer:
(a) Calculate the rod base temperature (°C). = 299.86°C
(b) Determine the rod length (mm) for the case where the ratio of the heat transfer from a finite length fin to the heat transfer from a very long fin under the same conditions is 99 percent. = 0.4325m
