A styrofoam cooler has a total area(including the lid) of 1.0m^2 and a wall thickness of 1.0 cm. It is filled with ice, water, and cans of ice-tea. They are at a temperature of 0 degrees celsius.

a) What is the rate of heat flow into the cooler if the temperature of the outside is 20 degrees celsius?

b) How much ice melts in one hour?

A plane wall has thickness of 5 cm, thermal conductivity of 2 W/mK and generates heat. The left face of the wall (x=0) has a surface temp. of 80C and has air at 20C flowing past it with a heat transfer coefficient of 50 W/m^2K. If the right face is insulated then the temperature distribution through the wall has a general format T(x)=A+B*x+C*x^2 (a) Draw a properly labeled diagram (including a representative temperature distribution), state all assumptions and calculate the...

When a sample of MegaCaff that weighs 0.5 g and has a total surface area of 0.25 m2 was dissolved in water for 2 minutes, the dissolution rate constant (k) was found to be 0.01 cm/min. The saturation solubility is known to be 3.2 x 10-3 g/mL. If the material is now pressed into a tablet with surface area 2.0 cm2, what will be the effect on the dissolution rate (dM/dt) and the dissolution rate constant (k)?

Danny is saving towards his vacation. He has determined that the total cost including airfare an accommodation will amount to $5,000. If he sets aside $400 per month from his salary, starting from the end of this month, in an account that pays interest of 9% per annum, will he have enough to make the trip at the end of the year?     How much more will he have in the account if he made his first deposit of $400 today?...
