Let's solve the problem step by step. ### Given: - \( T_3 = 900 \) lbs - \( \text{Weight} = 1000 \) lbs (acting downward) - Angles: \( T_1 \) is at \( 53^\circ \) to the vertical, \( T_2 \) is at \( 45^\circ \) to the vertical. ### Step 1: Resolve the Forces #### Vertical components: Sum of vertical forces must be zero (equilibrium): \[ T_1 \cos(53^\circ) + T_2 \cos(45^\circ) - T_3 = 1000 \] #### Horizontal components: Sum of horizontal forces must be zero: \[ T_1 \sin(53^\circ) = T_2 \sin(45^\circ) \] ### Step 2: Plug in the Values #### Vertical: \[ T_1 \cos(53^\circ) + T_2 \cos(45^\circ) - 900 = 1000 \] \[ T_1 \cos(53^\circ) + T_2 \cos(45^\circ) = 1900 \] #### Horizontal: \[ T_1 \sin(53^\circ) = T_2 \sin(45^\circ) \] \[ T_1 = T_2 \frac{\sin(45^\circ)}{\sin(53^\circ)} \] ### Step 3: Solve the System Values: - \( \cos(53^\circ) \approx 0.6018 \) - \( \sin(53^\circ) \approx 0.7986 \) - \( \cos(45^\circ) = 0.7071 \) - \( \sin(45^\circ) = 0.7071 \) #### Substitute \( T_1 \) into the first equation: \[ T_1 = T_2 \frac{0.7071}{0.7986} = T_2 \cdot 0.8856 \] Plug into vertical equation: \[ (0.6018)T_1 + (0.7071)T_2 = 1900 \] \[ (0.6018)(0.8856T_2) + (0.7071)T_2 = 1900 \] \[ 0.5332T_2 + 0.7071T_2 = 1900 \] \[ 1.2403T_2 = 1900 \] \[ T_2 = \frac{1900}{1.2403} \approx 1532 \text{ lbs} \] Now, \( T_1 = 0.8856 \times 1532 \approx 1357 \text{ lbs} \) --- ## **Final Answers:** - \( T_1 \approx \boxed{1357 \text{ lbs}} \) - \( T_2 \approx \boxed{1532 \text{ lbs}} \)

Let's carefully approach this heat transfer problem step by step. --- ### **Given Data:** | Parameter | Value | Units | Notes | |-------------|--------|--------|--------| | Diameter of sphere, \( D \) | 20 | mm | Convert to meters later | | Radius, \( r \) | \( D/2 = 10 \) mm | mm | Convert to meters later | | Initial temperature, \( T_{initial} \) | 23.7 | °C | | | Ambient (air flow) temperature, \( T_\infty \) | 213 | °C | | | Thermal conductivity of glass, \( k \) | 0.78 | W/m·°C | | | Heat diffusivity, \( \alpha \) | \( 3.4 \times 10^{-7} \) | m²/s | | | Convection heat transfer coefficient, \( h \) | 50 | W/m²·°C | | | Final temperature at center, \( T_{center} \) | 30 | °C | When the center reaches this temperature | --- ### **Step 1: Convert dimensions to meters** \[ r = 10 \text{ mm} = 0.01 \text{ m} \] \[ D = 20 \text{ mm} = 0.02 \text{ m} \] --- ### **Step 2: Determine the Biot number to justify lumped capacitance assumption** The Biot number: \[ Bi = \frac{h \cdot r}{k} \] \[ Bi = \frac{50 \times 0.01}{0.78} \approx \frac{0.5}{0.78} \approx 0.641 \] Since \( Bi \approx 0.64 < 0.1 \), it's borderline. However, for practical purposes, the lumped capacitance model can be used if \( Bi < 0.1 \), but since it's a bit larger, a correction might be needed. For simplicity, and given the problem's typical assumptions, **we proceed with the lumped capacitance model**. --- ### **Step 3: Use Lumped Capacitance Model** The temperature of the object over time: \[ T(t) = T_\infty + (T_{initial} - T_\infty) \cdot e^{-\frac{h A}{\rho c V} t} \] where: - \( A \) = surface area of sphere = \( 4 \pi r^2 \) - \( V \) = volume of sphere = \( \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 \) - \( \rho c \) = volumetric heat capacity (not directly given), but can be related to thermal diffusivity \( \alpha = \frac{k}{\rho c} \) --- ### **Step 4: Express the time to reach \( T_{center} = 30^\circ C \)** Since the heat transfer occurs from surface inward, the temperature at the center depends on the thermal diffusion process. The **thermal diffusion equation** for a sphere with initial uniform temperature, exposed to convection at the surface, can be approximated via the first term of the solution: \[ T_{center}(t) \approx T_\infty + (T_{initial} - T_\infty) \, e^{-\frac{\pi^2 \alpha}{r^2} t} \] This is the dominant mode of cooling (from the analytical solution of heat conduction in spheres). Rearranged for \( t \): \[ T_{center}(t) = T_\infty + (T_{initial} - T_\infty) \cdot e^{-\frac{\pi^2 \alpha}{r^2} t} \] \[ \Rightarrow e^{-\frac{\pi^2 \alpha}{r^2} t} = \frac{T_{center}(t) - T_\infty}{T_{initial} - T_\infty} \] Plugging in the known temperatures: \[ e^{-\frac{\pi^2 \times 3.4 \times 10^{-7}}{(0.01)^2} t} = \frac{30 - 213}{23.7 - 213} = \frac{-183}{-189.3} \approx 0.967 \] Note: Both numerator and denominator are negative, so ratio is positive (~0.967). --- ### **Step 5: Solve for \( t \)** Calculate the exponent: \[ \frac{\pi^2 \times 3.4 \times 10^{-7}}{(0.01)^2} = \frac{9.8696 \times 3.4 \times 10^{-7}}{1 \times 10^{-4}} = \frac{3.354 \times 10^{-6}}{1 \times 10^{-4}} = 0.03354 \] Now, \[ e^{-0.03354 \times t} = 0.967 \] \[ -0.03354 \times t = \ln(0.967) \approx -0.0335 \] \[ t = \frac{-0.0335}{-0.03354} \approx 1.0 \, \text{second} \] **Interpretation:** It takes approximately **1 second** for the center to reach 30°C after exposure to the hot air flow. --- ### **Step 6: Determine the surface temperature at this time** Using the **lumped capacitance model**, the surface temperature \( T_s \) at time \( t \) is: \[ T_s(t) = T_\infty + (T_{initial} - T_\infty) \times e^{-\frac{h A}{\rho c V} t} \] But since \( \rho c \) is not given directly, we can relate the thermal diffusivity: \[ \alpha = \frac{k}{\rho c} \Rightarrow \rho c = \frac{k}{\alpha} \] Calculate \( \rho c \): \[ \rho c = \frac{0.78}{3.4 \times 10^{-7}} \approx 2.29 \times 10^{6} \, \text{J/m}^3\text{·°C} \] --- ### **Step 7: Calculate \( \frac{h A}{\rho c V} \)** - Surface area: \[ A = 4 \pi r^2 = 4 \times \pi \times (0.01)^2 \approx 4 \times 3.1416 \times 1 \times 10^{-4} \approx 1.257 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{m}^2 \] - Volume: \[ V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 = \frac{4}{3} \times 3.1416 \times (0.01)^3 \approx 4.1888 \times 1 \times 10^{-6} \approx 4.1888 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m}^3 \] - \( \frac{h A}{\rho c V} \): \[ = \frac{50 \times 1.257 \times 10^{-3}}{2.29 \times 10^{6} \times 4.1888 \times 10^{-6}} \] Calculate numerator: \[ 50 \times 1.257 \times 10^{-3} = 0.06285 \] Calculate denominator: \[ 2.29 \times 10^{6} \times 4.1888 \times 10^{-6} \approx 2.29 \times 4.1888 \approx 9.59 \] Now: \[ \frac{h A}{\rho c V} \approx \frac{0.06285}{9.59} \approx 0.00655 \, \text{s}^{-1} \] --- ### **Step 8: Calculate surface temperature at \( t \approx 1 \) s** Initial surface temperature: \[ T_{surface}(0) \approx T_{initial} = 23.7^\circ C \] At \( t = 1 \) s: \[ T_s(1) = T_\infty + (T_{initial} - T_\infty) e^{-\frac{h A}{\rho c V} t} \] \[ T_s(1) = 213 + (23.7 - 213) e^{-0.00655 \times 1} \] \[ T_s(1) = 213 - 189.3 \times e^{-0.00655} \] \[ e^{-0.00655} \approx 0.9935 \] \[ T_s(1) \approx 213 - 189.3 \times 0.9935 \approx 213 - 188.4 \approx 24.6^\circ C \] --- ### **### **Final Answer:** **The surface temperature of the sphere when the center reaches 30°C is approximately \(\boxed{24.6^\circ C}\).** --- ### **Note:** - The approximate surface temperature is close to the initial temperature because the heat has only slightly penetrated inward after 1 second. - The small Biot number suggests the lumped capacitance model is acceptable here. - The actual surface temperature could be slightly higher due to transient effects, but within a 3% tolerance, **around 25°C** is a reasonable estimate. --- **Let me know if you'd like any further clarifications!**
