A straight fin fabricated from 2024 Aluminum alloy (k=185 W/mK) has a base thickness of t=3 mm and a length of L=15 mm. Its base temperature is Tb=100oC, and it is exposed to a fluid for which T[infinity] =20oC and h=50 W/m2K. For the foregoing conditions and a fin of unit width, compare the fin heat rate, efficiency, and volume for rectangular, triangular, and parabolic profiles.

An artificial satellite circles the earth in a circular orbit at a location where the acceleration due to gravity is 6.03 m/s^2. determine the orbital period of the satellite.

During spring semester at mit, residents of the parallel buildings of the east campus dorms battle one another with large catapults that are made with surgical hose mounted on a window frame. a balloon filled with dyed water is placed in a pouch attached to the hose, which is then stretched through the width of the room. assume that the stretching of the hose obeys hooke's law with a spring constant of 89.0 n/m. if the hose is stretched by 5.80 m and then released, how much work does the force from the hose do on the balloon in the pouch by the time the hose reaches its relaxed length? unitst 3 number-1497 the tolerance is +/-5% open show work click if you would like to show work for this question:
