Question
Referring to Figure 10.11, suppose you have some lizards that
are at 16°C and have been living at that temperature for 5 weeks.
What is their resting metabolic rate? If the lizards are suddenly
shifted to a room at 33°C, trace on the graph how their metabolic
rate will change from the moment they are placed in the new
room until 5 weeks have passed. According to the graph, will
they exhibit compensation?

- Please explain and answerarrow_forwardHeat Transfer question In order to cool down a hot steel sphere (its diameter is 5 cm), CO2 gas is blown over it through a pipe with a diameter of 10 cm. The CO2 gas is kept at atmospheric pressure while moving through a smooth pipe at a speed of 6 m/sec. The gas temperature entering the pipe is 300K and exiting the pipe is 340 K. The pipe temperature at the entrance is 350K and at the exit is 550K. The sphere is located just about the pipe exit. Find the convective heat transfer coefficient of the gas moving in the pipe, the heat transfer rate at the pipe and the pipe length. What is the surface temperature of the sphere if the heat transfer rate between the sphere and the gas is 7W and its surface temperature is higher than the gas?arrow_forwardMATCH THE ANSWER WITH THE QUESTION Path Function Choose.

- Your house has an electric water heater. Several friends are visiting you over the weekend and they are taking consecutive showers. Assume that at the maximum heating level, the heater uses 50 kW of electricity. The water use rate is a continuous 4 gallons per minute with the new water saving showerhead you recently installed. Your very old showerhead had used 7 gallons per minute. You replaced the showerhead because you learned that heating water was the second highest energy use in your home. By slowing the flow of water through the heater, the water temperature should increase to a higher temperature. (a) What is the change in temperature (T) for the old showerhead? (b) What is the change in temperature (T) for the new showerhead? Assume the system is at steady sate, and all of the 50 kW energy used is heating the water.arrow_forwardConduction Heat Transfer X material (a) material (b) . both (a) and (b) have the same thermal conductivity the temperature distribution is independent of thermal conductivity it's not that simple 9. Fin efficiency is defined as: • tanh (mL) (hP/k Ac)1/2 (heat transfer with fin) / (heat transfer without fin) (actual heat transfer through fin) / (heat transfer assuming all fin is at T = Tb) (Tx=L-Tf)/(Tb-Tf) 10. For an infinite fin, the temperature distribution is given by: (T-Tf)/(Tb-Tf)= e-mx. The heat flow through the fin is therefore given by: k (Tb-Tf)/L ● zero, because the fin is infinite ● infinite because the fin is infinite ● (Tb-Tf) (hP/k Ac)1/2 ● (Tb – Tf) (h P / k Ac)1/2 tanh (mL) 11. The Biot number, Bi, is defined as: • Bi=hk/L • Bi=hL/k • Bi= k/LH • Bi=qL/k • Bi=p UL/k 12. For a plate of length L, thickness, t, and width, W, subjected to convection on the two faces of area L x W. What is the correct length scale for use in the Biot number? . L ● W ● t • t/2 • L/2 13.

How long will it take the water heater to heat a 67 gallon tank of water from 10 degrees Celsius to 50 degrees Celsius? (1 kilogram of water is 0.37 gallons, 1 Calorie = 4200 J). It may be helpful to refer back to the weekly handout for guidance on this problem. Your final answer should be in minutes (rounded to the nearest 10 minutes).arrow_forward
