The heat transfer between a solid body and a fluid medium is determined by the equation Q=h·A·(Ts-Tf). Here; Q is the amount of heat transferred, h is the heat transfer coefficient, A is the heat transfer surface area, Ts is the temperature of the surface and Tf is the temperature of the fluid. These parameters were measured as h=250±1.75 W/m2ºC, A=20±0.75 m2, Ts =100±0.75ºC and Tf =25±0.75ºC, including error levels.

The balloon is released from the bottom of a water-filled testing pool and floats 30 m to the water surface (where the atmospheric pressure is standard). The volume of the balloon is 3,000 cm^3. The temperature is 25 ℃ at the surface of the water, and the water temperature at the bottom of the pool is 10 ℃.

The shear modulus, G, of an alloy can be determined by measuring the angular twist, θ,resulting from a torque applied to a cylindrical rod made from the alloy. For a rod of radius Rand a torque applied at a length L from a fixed end, the modulus is found by G=2LT/pR4θ.Examine the effect of the relative uncertainty of each measured variable on the shearmodulus. If during test planning all of the uncertainties are estimated to be 1%, what is theuncertainty in G?
To measure the density of a stone, a digital scale and a beaker cup filled with water are used. The balance is used to measure the mass of the stone, while the beaker is used to measure the volume of the stone. It is known that the digital balance has a resolution of 0.1 g and that the beaker cup has a resolution of 5 ml. Repeated mass measurements return the following values: 250.0 g; 249.9 g; 250.3 g; 249.6g; 250.1 g; 249.7g; 250.4 g; 250.0 g; 248.8 g; 250.2 g The volume is measured only once. Placing the stone in the beaker, a volume of displaced water equal to 50 ml is measured. Using a k=2.5, check if the density of the stone is compatible or out of line with the value ρ = (4910 ± 65) kg.m-3 (a) none of the above (b) the values are compatible (c) missing data to perform the compatibility test (d) the values are discrepant

Cardiologists use the short-range scaling exponent α1, which measures the randomness of heart rate patterns, as a tool to assess risk of heart attack. The article “Applying Fractal Analysis to Short Sets of Heart Rate Variability Data” compared values of α1 computed from long series of measurements (approximately 40,000 heartbeats) with those estimated from the first 300 beats to determine how well the long-term measurement (y) could be predicted the short-term one (x).

PROPAGATION OF ERROR You are tasked to supervise the design of 0.5MW wind turbine to be constructed in a Wind Farm in Pililla, Rizal. Suppose the design criteria are as follows: The air density as surveyed after 2 year period averaged at 1.225 kg / cubic meter. The sweeping diameter of the rotor blades is 125m, and the anemometer reading in the area amounts to 4.2m/s on a 2 year period of survey. if the diameter measurement is off by 0.1m and the anemometer reading is also fluctuating by 0.05m/s. In the design specifications given, if the actual measurement of power via the substation amounts to exactly 530kW and given that the windspeed is off by 0.05m/s, what could have been the error in the measurement of diameter? Your answer must be in 3 decimal places and in correct signs and measurement. Show complete solution in paper.
