The rear window of an automobile is defogged by passing warm air over its inner surface. If the warm air is at T∞,i=40°C and the corresponding convection coefficient is hi=30 W/m2·K, what are the inner and outer surface temperatures, in °C, of 4-mm-thick window glass, if the outside ambient air temperature is T∞,o= -27.5°C and the associated convection coefficient is ho=65 W/m2·K? Evaluate the properties of the glass at 300 K.   a. what is Ts, i in °C? b. what is Ts, o in °C?
