A student is cooking macaroni and cheese for dinner. The student places a pot on the stove, boils water in the pot, places noodles in the boiling water, and watches the noodles float and sink in the pot. Explain the types of heat transfer that are occurring as the student cooks the noodles.

The drag force, fd, imposed by the surrounding air on a vehicle moving with velocity v is given by fd = cdaρv 2/2 where cd is a constant called the drag coefficient, a is the projected frontal area of the vehicle, and ρ is the air density. an automobile is moving at v = 80 kilometers per hour with cd = 0.28, a = 2.3 m2, and ρ = 1.2 kg/m3.
