The temperature difference between the hot and cold fluids in a heat exchanger is given to be DT1 at one end and DT2 at the other end. Can the logarithmic temperature difference DTlm of this heat exchanger be greater than both DT1 and DT2? Explain.
Q19 Does our ability to survive on Earth’s surface depend on the greenhouse effect? Explain.
Physics: Temperature [ A bubble of air is rising up through the ocean. When it is at a depth of 22.0 m below the surface, where the temperature is 5.00°C, its volume is 1.10 cm3. What is the bubble's volume (in cm3) just before it hits the ocean surface, where the temperature is 20.0°C? Assume the average density of sea water is 1,025 kg/m3. ] May I ask for some help in setting this problem up and what equations I should use, please? I have not been taught fluid dynamics, and that is not being taught in the current chapter, so I am not sure how to relate the depth and density to the gas law parts. Also, is it correct to assume I'll be using PV = nRT in this problem, and/or some variation of P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2?
