A 120‐m thick layer of air over a polluted city contains aerosol particles with diameters ranging from 1.0 to 1.7 m particles with a total concentration of 105 g/m3 , which is in excess of the 24‐hour PM2.5 threshold of 65 g/m3. (PM stands for Particle Matter, and the 2.5 subscript refers to particles 2.5 m in diameter or smaller.) The air inside this layer is constantly well mixed by winds, while the air above 120 m is perfectly clean and still. Because particles are heavier than air (particle density = 2500 kg/m3 whereas air density = 1.20 kg/m3 ), particles fall and settle on the ground, where they stick and are not re‐suspended. There is thus a net flux of particles out of the airshed. (a) (2 points) Does settling follow Stokes’ or Newton’s Law? (b) (3 points) What is the range of settling speeds for these particles? Check on the Reynolds number to ensure that you use the correct formula. (c) (5 points) How long doesit take for the atmospheric PM concentration at ground level to drop below the compliance threshold?

A3-mm-thick panel of aluminum alloy (k 177 w/m-k, c 875 j/kg-k and ? = 2770 kg/m) is finished on both sides with an epoxy coating that must be cured at or above t,-150°c for at least 5 min. the production line for the curing operation involves two steps: (1) heating in a large oven with air at ts,0-175°c and a convection coefficient of h, 40 w/m2. k, and (2) cooling in a large chamber with air at 25°c and a con- vection coefficient of he 10 w/m2.k. the heating portion of the process is conducted over a time interval te which exceeds the ime required to reach 150°c by 5 min (h = r + 300 s). the coating has an emissivity of ? = 0.8, and the temperatures of the oven and chamber walls are 175 and 25°c, respectively. if the panel is placed in the oven at an initial temperature of 25°c and removed from the chamber at a safe-to-touch tempera ture of 37°c, what is the total elapsed time for the two-step curing operation?
