Rate of heat flux from from hot gas in a pipe to water outside

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the rate of heat flux from hot gas in a pipe to surrounding water. The participant has successfully derived an equation for temperature distribution, T(x) - T0 = (T1 - T0)e^(-Φx/fc), where f is defined as fm. They seek guidance on how to derive the expression for heat transfer coefficient H. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding radial heat flow in a pipe section. The participant later confirms they have obtained the answer to their query.

I have solved the first 2 parts.
For the 3rd part, I have obtained the equation:
T(x) - T0 = (T1 - T0)e^(-Φx/fc), where f = fm in the question.

How do I obtain that expression for H?

Thank you!

Thread 'Minimum mass of a block'

Here we know that if block B is going to move up or just be at the verge of moving up ##Mg \sin \theta ## will act downwards and maximum static friction will act downwards ## \mu Mg \cos \theta ## Now what im confused by is how will we know " how quickly" block B reaches its maximum static friction value without any numbers, the suggested solution says that when block A is at its maximum extension, then block B will start to move up but with a certain set of values couldn't block A reach...

Thread 'Electric field due to charges between 2 parallel infinite planes'

TL;DR Summary: Find Electric field due to charges between 2 parallel infinite planes using Gauss law at any point Here's the diagram. We have a uniform p (rho) density of charges between 2 infinite planes in the cartesian coordinates system. I used a cube of thickness a that spans from z=-a/2 to z=a/2 as a Gaussian surface, each side of the cube has area A. I know that the field depends only on z since there is translational invariance in x and y directions because the planes are...

Figure 1 Overall Structure Diagram Figure 2: Top view of the piston when it is cylindrical A circular opening is created at a height of 5 meters above the water surface. Inside this opening is a sleeve-type piston with a cross-sectional area of 1 square meter. The piston is pulled to the right at a constant speed. The pulling force is（Figure 2）： F = ρshg = 1000 × 1 × 5 × 10 = 50,000 N. Figure 3: Modifying the structure to incorporate a fixed internal piston When I modify the piston...
