Steam in a heating system flows through tubes whose outer diameter is 5 cm and whose walls are maintained at a temperature of 130°c. circular aluminum alloy 2024-t6 fins (k = 186 w/m⋅k) of outer diameter 6 cm and constant thickness 1 mm are attached to the tube. the space between the fins is 3 mm, and thus there are 250 fins per meter length of the tube. heat is transferred to the surrounding air at t[infinity] = 25°c, with a heat transfer coefficient of 40 w/m2⋅k. determine the increase in heat transfer from the tube per meter of its length as a result of adding fins.

Argon, neon, and xenon are examples of

Which statement is the best definition of an atom? a) anything that has mass and occupies space. b) the smallest particle that has the properties of an element. c) a substance that cannot be broken down chemically into simpler substances. eliminate d) the smallest unit of a substance that exhibits all of the properties characteristic of that substance.

It may seem strange that the selected velocity does not depend on either the mass or the charge of the particle. (for example, would the velocity of a neutral particle be selected by passage through this device? ) the explanation of this is that the mass and the charge control the resolution of the device--particles with the wrong velocity will be accelerated away from the straight line and will not pass through the exit slit. if the acceleration depends strongly on the velocity, then particles with just slightly wrong velocities will feel a substantial transverse acceleration and will not exit the selector. because the acc
