The shooter holds a leather-covered baseball for a certain period of time, bringing the outer surface temperature of the ball to 30 ℃. Then the shooter throws the ball at 80 km/h to another athlete standing 18.5 meters away. It is known that the diameter of the ball is 7 cm and the air temperature is 20 ℃. Calculate the total heat transfer from the ball to the ambient air during flight, in Joules, assuming that the outer surface temperature of the ball remains constant throughout the shot. (When finding the properties, find the real values by interpolating. Ignore the air resistance.)
Consider a 50-cm-diameter and 95-cm-long hot water tank. The tank is placed on the roof of a house. The water inside the tank is heated to 80°C by a flat-plate solar collector during the day. The tank is then exposed to windy air at 18°C with an average velocity of 40 km/h during the night. Estimate the temperature of the tank after a 45-min period. Assume the tank surface to be at the same temperature as the water inside, and the heat transfer coefficient on the top and bottom surfaces to be the same as that on the side surface.
