The surface temperature of a lake changes from one location to another as T(x1, x2). If you attach a thermometer to a boat and take a path through the lake given by xi = bi(tˆ), find an expression for the rate of change of the thermometer temperature in terms of the lake temperature.

What precautions should you take to prevent injuries when dealing with heavy loads?

The temperature of air decreases as it is compressed by an adiabatic compressor. a)- true b)- false

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
