One way to visualize atmospheric pressure is to imagine a wedge-shaped column of air that extends from the surface to the top of the atmosphere. The weight of this column causes atmospheric pressure. There are proposals to send a robotic spacecraft to Venus that will deploy a balloon that will float in the upper atmosphere and study the planet. Explain why being higher in the atmosphere would reduce the atmospheric pressure on the spacecraft and allow it to survive for a longer period of time.

Asteel tube (k=50 w/mk) of inner and outer diameter di = 20mm and do=26mm, respectively, is used to transfer heat from hot gases flowing over the tube (h-hot = 200w/m2k) to cold water flowing through the tube (h-cold = 8000 w/m2k). what is the cold-side overall heat transfer coefficient uc? to enhance heat transfer 16 straight fins of rectangular profile are installed longitudinally along the outer surface of the tube. the fins are equally spaced around the circumference of the tube, each having a thickness of 2mm and a length of 15mm. what is the corresponding overall heat transfer coefficient uc? *solve for uc in both cases*
