Avisitor to the observation deck of a skyscraper manages to drop a penny over the edge. as the penny falls faster, the force due to air resistance increases. how does this affect the acceleration of the penny?
a. the acceleration decreases b. the acceleration remains constant and not zero (my answer)
c. the acceleration remains zero d. the acceleration increases.

Ineed with these last two questions: 1) what are two types of cold air masses that influence the weather in north america? name them and describe their humidity. 2) describe the motion of a cold air mass and a warm air mass and the weather you would expect at a warm front and an occluded front.

Na food processing facility, a spherical container of inner radius r1 5 40 cm, outer radius r2 5 41 cm, and ther- mal conductivity k 5 1.5 w/m · k is used to store hot water and to keep it at 100°c at all times. to accomplish this, the outer surface of the container is wrapped with a 800-w electric strip heater and then insulated. the temperature of the inner surface of the container is observed to be nearly 120°c at all times. as- suming 10 percent of the heat generated in the heater is lost through the insulation, (a) express the differential equation and the boundary conditions for steady one-dimensional heat conduction through the container, (b) obtain a relation for the variation of temperature in the container material by solving the differential equation, and (c) evaluate the outer surface tempera- ture of the container. also determine how much water at 100°c this tank can supply steadily if the cold water enters at 20°c.

6–48 bananas are to be cooled from 24 to 138c at a rate of 215 kg/h by a refrigeration system. the power input to the refrigerator is 1.4 kw. determine the rate of cooling, in kj/ min, and the cop of the refrigerator. the specific heat of banana above freezing is 3.35 kj/kg·8c.
