In about 5 sentences can you please explain to me that is the Heat Current “H” the same or different when someone is sitting on the metal or wooden bench?
In order not to damage the resistance in the kettles, the difference between the temperature ofthe heater and the fluid should not exceed 25 oC. If the heat transfer area between the fluid andthe heater is 78.5 cm2 and the heat transfer coefficient is 400 W/m2.K, find the maximumallowable power of the heater in order to boil water?

Consider a 1000-W iron whose base plate is made of 0.5-cm-thick aluminum alloy 2024-T6 (r = 2770 kg/m3 and cp = 875 J/kg·°C). The base plate has a surface area of 0.03 m2. Initially, the iron is in thermal equilibrium with the ambient air at 22°C. Assuming 90 percent of the heat generated in the resistance wires is transferred to the plate, determine the minimum time needed for the plate temperature to reach 200°C.

Two lightbulbs have cylindrical filaments much greater in length than in diameter. The evacuated bulbs are identical except that one operates at a filament temperature of 2 100°C and the other operates at 2 000°C. (a) Find the ratio of the power emitted by the hotter lightbulb to that emitted by the cooler lightbulb. (b) With the bulbs operating at the same respective temperatures, the cooler lightbulb is to be altered by making its filament thicker so that it emits the same power as the hotter one. By what factor should the radius of this filament be increased?
