Two mozzarella cheese cubes of sides 0.8 and 0.4 cm are initially at 20 °C. Physical properties of mozzarella are: = 1050 kg/m3, Cp = 2800 J/kg K, melting point: Tm = 55 °C. We will assume that internal resistance to heat transfer is negligible in the cubes. (a) If both cheese cubes are placed in a conventional oven at a temperature of 100 °C with convective heat transfer coefficient h = 50 W/m²K, calculate the time at which the cheese will begin to melt for both cubes. Which cube melts first? Assume that the side on which the cube rests is insulated, so that convection takes place from 5 of the cube's 6 faces. (b) If the cubes are placed in a microwave oven at a temperature of 20 °C with the same heat transfer coefficient as in part (a) acting on 5 faces, and with a uniform thermal energy liberation due to microwave heating Er= 2.8 W/cm", calculate the time at which the cheese will begin to melt for both cubes. Which cube melts first?

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.
