A 0.1-W small cylindrical resistor mounted ona lower part of a vertical circuit board is 0.3 in long andhas a diameter of 0.2 in. The view of the resistor is largelyblocked by another circuit board facing it, and the heat transferthrough the connecting wires is negligible. The air is free to flow through the large parallel flow passages between theboards as a result of natural convection currents. If the airtemperature at the vicinity of the resistor is 120°F, determinethe approximate surface temperature of the resistor.

The student engineer of a campus radio station wishes to verify the effectiveness of the lightning rod on the antenna mast (as shown). The unknown resistance Rx is between points C and E. Point E is a true ground, but it is inaccessible for direct measurement because this stratum is several meters below the Earth’s surface. Two identical rods are driven into the ground at A and B, introducing an unknown resistance Ry. The procedure is as follows. Measure resistance R1 between points A and B, then connect A and B with a heavy conducting wire and measure resistance R2 between points A and C. (a) Derive an equation for Rx in terms of the observable resistances, R1 and R2. (b) A satisfactory ground resistance would be Rx < 2.00 Ω. Is the grounding of the station adequate if measurements give R1 = 13.0 Ω and R2 = 6.00 Ω? Explain.
