Let T(t) and Tm (t) be the temperatures of the body and the medium at time t, respectively. If the initial temperature of the body is T1 and the initial temperature of the medium is T2, then it can be shown in this case that Newton's law of cooling is dT/dt = k(T - Tm ), k 0 is a constant. (a) The foregoing DE is autonomous. Determine the limiting value of the temperature T(t) as t→ o What is the limiting value of Tm (t) as t→o? (b) Verify your answers in part (a) by actually solving the differential equation. (c) Discuss a physical interpretation of your answers in part (a).arrow_forward
- Concerned with the motion and its causes such as force, torque, energy and momentum. subject: dynamics of rigid bodiesarrow_forwardThe 1st law of thermodynamics is ΔU = Q –W. Use this statement of the 1st law to show (mathematically) its equivalent statement: “Total energy of the universe is constant”. Here, the universe can be defined as: system + surroundings (everything but the system –everything outside the system). (Hint: this can be shown by two ways-you may either treat system and surroundings as two systems next to each other, or you may treat system + surroundings (universe) as one system.)arrow_forwardTHERMODYNAMICS 11 kg of air is heated from 24 to 84 degrees celcius in a piston-cylinder device by passing electricity via a resistive heater within the cylinder. The pressure within the cylinder is remained constant at 300 kPa during the procedure, and a 78 kJ heat loss occurs what is the kWh value of the supplied electric energy?arrow_forward

How long would it take to cool a dozen 1.00 L of water in a plastic wrapper from 33.0 °C to -4.00 °C in this refrigerator? Any heat escaping the plastic should be ignored. Remember that 1.00 g/cm3 is the density of water.arrow_forwardA solar energy storage compartment contains 1,778 rocks that can approximate 3-inch-diameter spheres. The properties of the rocks are k = 2.2 Btu / h ∙ ft ∙ ºF, α = 0.07 ft2 / h, cp = 0.2 Btu / lbm ° F, and the density is 160 lbm / ft3. How long (in hours) would it take for solar energy to saturate the compartment using 200 ° F air from a solar collector? How much energy (in Btu) is stored in the compartment under these conditions if it is initially at 79 ° F and h = 5 Btu / h ∙ ft2 ∙ ºF?arrow_forward
