You work in a materials testing lab and your boss tells you to increase the temperature of a sample by 32.9 ∘C . The only thermometer you can find at your workbench reads in degrees Fahrenheit.If the initial temperature of the sample is 72.4 ∘F, what is its temperature in degrees Fahrenheit when the desired temperature increase has been achieved? Express your answer in degrees Fahrenheit to three significant figures.
The average thermal conductivity of the walls (including windows) and roof of a house in Figure P11.46 is 4.8 x 10-4 kW/m .°C, and their average thickness is 21.0 cm. The house is heated with natural gas, with a heat of combustion (energy released per cubic meter of gas burned) of 9300 kcal/m3. How many cubic meters of gas must be burned each day to maintain an inside temperature of 25.0°C if the outside temperature is 0.0°C? Disregard surface air layers, radiation, and energy loss by heat through the ground.
The highest registered waterfalls in the world are those of Angel Falls, which is located in Venezuela. Its longest single waterfall has a height of 807 m. If the water at the top of the falls is 18.0 ° C, what is the maximum temperature (in degrees C) of the water at the bottom? Suppose that when all the kinetic energy of the water reaches the bottom, the temperature of the water increases.

A test is conducted to determine the overall heat transfer coefficient in a shell-and-tube oil-to-water heat exchanger that has 24 tubes of internal diameter 1.2 cm and length 2 m in a single shell. Cold water (cp = 4180 J/kg·K) enters the tubes at 20°C at a rate of 3 kg/s and leaves at 55°C. Oil (cp = 2150 J/kg·K) flows through the shell and is cooled from 120°C to 45°C. Determine the overall heat transfer coefficient Ui of this heat exchanger based on the inner surface area of the tubes.
