A thermocouple is made by welding two dissimilar metals into a small spherical bead. The potential difference between the two legs of the termocouple is a measure of the average temperature in the bead. Suppose that you have a chromel-alumel thermocouple bead, with the following material properties: \[Rho]=2700 kg m^-3, k=100 W/(m K), Subscript[C, p]=400 J/(kg K). The thermocouple bead has a radius of 1 mm. It is to be plunged suddenly from room temperature into boiling water (100 \[Degree]C), and the heat transfer coefficient is 10^4 W/(m^2 K). Determine the response time of the thermocouple, by calculating how long it takes for the thermocouple bead temperature to be within 0.1% of 100 \[Degree]C, i. e. how long does it take for the thermocouple temperature to rise to a temperature of 99.9 \[Degree]C? Hint: This is a small bead so we might want to test to see if we can simplify the handling of this problem as we could do for a thin sheet of Aluminum, i. e. check to see if Newtonian cooling applies.

A2-m rigid tank initially contains saturated water vapor at 100 kpa. the tank is connected to a supply line through a valve. steam is flowing in the supply line at 600 kpa and 300 c. the valve is opened, and steam is allowed to enter the tank until the pressure in the tank reaches the line pressure, at which point the valve is closed. a thermometer placed in the tank indicates that the temperature at the final state is 200°c. determine (a) the mass of steam that has entered the tank (b) the amount of heat transfer.

Afoot bridge is made as a simple deck, 4 m long, with a cross section 2 m (wide) and 20 cm thick, and made of wood. the deck is supported at the two ends. the maximum load allowable on the bridge is 10 tons, provided it is uniformly distributed on the deck. to sense this load, a strain gauge is placed at the center of the bridge and its resistance is monitored. if the sensor has a nominal resistance of 350 s2 and a gauge factor of 3.6, what is the reading of the strain gauge at maximum load? the modulus of elasticity for the wood used in the construction is 10 gpa.
