When the pioneers were crossing the plains in covered wagons, a metal rim could be attached to a wooden wagon wheel by heating the rim to expand it and then placing it over the wheel before it cooled. The shrink-attachment would firmly hold the rim in place and strengthen the wooden wheel. Suppose a certain wooden wagon wheel has an outer circumference of 300.0 cm and that its iron rim has an inside circumference of 299.5 cm when it is at 15° C. To what temperature must the rim be heated so that it will just fit over the wheel?
Consider steel railroad rails, which have a thermal coefficient of linear expansion of 1.20 × 10-5 / °C. How large an expansion gap, in meters, should be left between such rails if they may reach a maximum temperature 36°C greater than when they are laid? Assume their initial length is 10.0 m.?
On a certain dry sunny day, a swimming pool's temperature would rise by 1.10°C if not for evaporation. What fraction of the water must evaporate to carry away precisely enough heat to keep the temperature constant? Answer _____________________
It is important for the body to be able to cool itself even during moderate exercise. Suppose a 70kg man runs on a treadmill for 30min and at a (total) metabolic energy expenditure rate of 1000W. Suppose the man is allowed to run without clothing, and in a room inwhich the temperature of the air, walls, floor, and ceiling are all equal to that of his skin temperature. What is the net heat energy dissipated through radiative, conductive and convective heat transfer combined? A)1800kJB)450kJC)1350kJD)0kJ
A soldering iron has a cylindrical tip of 2.5 mm in diameter and 20 mm in length. With age and usage, the tip has oxidized and has an emissivity of 0.80. Assuming that the average convection heat transfer coefficient over the soldering iron tip is 25 W/m2·K, and the surrounding air temperature is 20°C, determine the power required to maintain the tip at 400°C.
Air-conditioning units contain no water whatever, yet it is common to see water dripping from them when they’re operating on a hot day. Explain.
A 200.0 g metal container, insulated on the outside, holds 100.0 g of water in thermalequilibrium at 22.0 oC. A 21.0 g ice cube, at the melting point, is dropped into the water. Whenthermal equilibrium is reached, the temperature is 15.0 °C. Assuming there is no heat exchangewith the surroundings, calculate the specific heat for the metal.[Given cwater = 4186.0 J/kg*K and Lf = 3.34 *10^5 J/kg]
A brass rod is 40.1 cm long and an aluminum rod is 79.3 cm long when both rods are at an initialtemperature of 0°C. The rods are placed in line with a gap of 0.60 cm between them, as shown in the figure. The distance between the far ends of the rods is maintained at 120.0 cm throughout. The temperature of both rods is raised until the two rods are barely in contact. The coefficientsof linear expansion of brass and aluminum are 2.0 × 10^-5 K^-1 and 2.4 × 10^-5 K^-1, respectively. What is the temperature at which contact of the rods barely occurs?
On a certain dry sunny day, a swimming pool’s temperature would rise by 1.50 °C if not for evaporation. What fraction of the water must evaporate to carry away precisely enough energy to keep the temperature constant?
In the summer of 1958 in St. Petersburg, Florida, a new sidewalk was poured near the childhood home of one of the authors. No expansion joints were supplied, and by mid-July the sidewalk had been completely destroyed by thermal expansion and had to be replaced, this time with the important addition of expansion joints! This event is modeled here. A slab of concrete 4.00 cm thick, 1.00 m long, and 1.00 m wide is poured for a sidewalk at an ambient temperature of 25.0°C and allowed to set. The slab is exposed to direct sunlight and placed in a series of such slabs without proper expansion joints, so linear expansion is prevented. (a) Using the linear expansion equation (Eq. 10.4), eliminate Δ L from the equation for compressive stress and strain (Eq. 9.3). (b) Use the expression found in part (a) to eliminate Δ T from Equation 11.3, obtaining a symbolic equation for thermal energy transfer Q. (c) Compute the mass of the concrete slab given that its density is 2.40 × 103 kg/m3. (d)…

An ice chest is constructed of Styrofoam (k = 0.033 W/moC) with insidedimensions of 25 by 40 by 100 cm. The wall thickness is 5.0 cm. The outside ofthe chest is exposed to air at 25oC with h = 10 W/moC. If the chest is completelyfilled with ice, calculate the time for the ice to completely melt. State allassumptions. The heat of fusion for water is 330 kJ/kg. (hint: ‘unwrap’ the box asthis is a plane wall problem)
