We are interested in predicting the time it will take for popcorn kernels to pop in a fluidized bed. the superficial air velocity inside the bed is 3 m/s, which is above the minimum fluidization velocity for popcorn kernels. the air temperature is maintained constant at 520 k (247°c) by heating coils placed around the fluidization vessel. the average diameter of the popcorn kernels is 0.5 cm. when the temperature of a kernel reaches 175°c, it will pop. at 25°c, the thermal conductivity of popcorn is 0: 2 w=m ? k, the specific heat is 2000 j=kg ? k, and the density is 1300 kg=m3. a. what is the convective heat-transfer coefficient for air flow around each popcorn kernel? b. what is the biot number for a popcorn kernel? is a lumpedparameter model valid? c. if we assume that the popcorn kernel pops when its centerline temperature reaches 175°c, how long after entering the bed will it take for the popcorn kern

Imagine you had to physically add electrons, one at a time, to a previously neutral conductor. you add one electron very easily, but the second electron requires more work. in your initial post to the discussion, explain why this is. also, what happens to the work needed to add the third, fourth, fifth, and subsequent electrons
