Posting it second time . Answer all else dont answer - You are using a silver spoon to stir water that just started boiling so that you can achieve a more even heat distribution in your water. The spoon is partially immersed in boiling water and a thermometer in your kitchen reads 27 °C. The handle of the spoon has a cross section of 2mm × 1cm and extends 15 cm in the air from the free surface of the water. The heat transfer coefficient at the exposed surfaces of the spoon handle is 3 W/m2 ×K. Part A : Determine the temperature difference across the exposed surface of the spoon handle. Follow the problem-solving guide on the front page. At the minimum, your analysis should answer the following questions providing detailed justifications:-What are the modes of heat transfer that the spoon is exposed to? -Is this a time dependent or steady state problem? Why or why not?-Is this a 1-D, 2-D or 3-D problem? Why or why not?- What is the thermal conductivity of the material?- The heat…

Quenching is a rapid cooling process by which many metallic alloys are hardened. Brass (a copper alloy: 70 Cu, 30 Zn) plates that are 4 mm thick are quenched in a water bath at a heat treating plant. If a brass plate is initially at 4500C determine the quench time needed for the plate to attain 900C. The water bath temperature is 800C and has an average convective heat transfer coefficient of 45 W/(m2 K), determine how long the plate has to remain in the oven.
