If an aluminum oxide at room temperature (25°C) is placed on hot oven where it's surface is heated to 100°C at time t=0, how long would it take for the material to reach 80°C, 1 mm from the surface? Thermal diffusivity of the aluminum oxide is 11 cm²/s. The answer should be in milliseconds. Hint: Apply the Fick's second law. SUBMIT YOUR SOLUTION!

Expert Solution

Give, Initial Temperature of aluminum oxide, = 25 °C                         Final Temperature reqd.,=100°C

         l = 1mm                      D = 11/s = 1.1 x /sec                 

We need to calculate, how long would it take for the material to reach, = 80°C

Water is boiled in a cup and its placed in a room that is 25 degrees Celsius. Assume that Newton's Law of Cooling is satisfied: the rate of change in water temperature is proportional to the difference between the temperature of the water and the temperature of the environment. We take the water temperature after 7 minutes and find it to be 77 degrees Celsius. Establish and solve an initial value problem to express the temperature of the water as...
