a) First, let's start with the steady-state analysis for the cable. What is the steady-state temperature of the wire surface if this current has been passing through the cable for a long period of time in these underwater conditions? Enter only a numeric value (with no units entered) and express your answer in ∘C.b) Now, let's think about the transient case. Assume that the cable starts at the same uniform temperature as the water and then the electrical current is passed through the cable. We're now interested in the amount of time it takes to heat up. Start by calculating the Biot number for this scenario. Enter only a numeric value (your answer should be unitless). c) From this Biot number and your simplifications of the geometry, select the appropriate assumptions:There is no heat generation in the cable.We must account for heat transfer from the circular ends of the cable.We will neglect radiative heat transfer from the cable.The properties in this scenario will remain constant (independent of temperature).The cable must not be treated as lumped (a 1D or higher order analysis is warranted).The cable can now be assumed to be in steady-state.The cable can be treated as lumped (OD). A submarine power cable is a cable that is run underwater to carry electrical power across oceansand seas.PETROLEUM JELLYPOLYCARBONATESTRANDED METAL(STEEL) WIES1-OPTICAL FIRERS9-POLYETHYLENESTRANDED METAL(STEEL) WIRES-8-MILAN+2-COPPER ORALUMAVUM-ALUMUM WATEN BAR(Image: Wind Systems Magazine)(Image: US Patent #4278835)Usually these cables are very thick and surrounded by protective material but you work for acompany whose R&D is focused on developing a new material for submarine cables that allows themto be both electrically conductive and durable enough to withstand the harsh conditions of theocean.

A windmill turns a series of slender rods fixed about one end . They are initially 2 meters long, and go at a speed of 15 revolutions per minute. I suggested making the blades 1m long to reduce the cross-sectional area of the windmill, keeping the mass the same for mechanical stress consistency. How fast are the windmill blades going now, in revolutions per minute?
