1- This cartoon is can be yours truly as I often get up in the night only to nap on the couch. More importantly, Mr Tinkerson made a coffee only to let it cool on a table, which is perfect for a convection problem. Let's assume the cup is a typical cup with a top rim diameter of 75.0 mm. Judging by the steam above the cup-o-coffee it must be at a typical 175 degF. If the room temperature is 19.0 degC, what is the rate (W) of heat transfer via convection from the top of the coffee into the room? Assume h= 5.2 J/s*m^2* Cdeg.

2- In this popular cartoon strip, Hi is in front of a large typical 1950's single pane window of his home. It's in the evening in early fall. Temperature outside is a cool 12.5 degC and the temperature inside is a confortable 21.1 degC. At what rate (W) is heat lost through the 1.19 m by 1.75 m glass window pane that is 6.05 mm thick? Hmmm, Maybe Hi and Lois should think about replacement a window??
