to illustrate the need for technology to observe the atmosphere from beyond Earth's surface
B
to illustrate the need for rockets that can leave Earth's orbit in order to view the atmosphere from above
C
to highlight how short the distance between Earth's surface and the end of the atmosphere is
D
to highlight how long the distance between Earth's surface and the end of the atmosphere is

The air in an automobile tire with a volume of 0.015 m3 is at 32°c and 140 kpa gage. determine the amount of air that must be added to raise the pressure to the recommended value of 206 kpa gage. assume the atmospheric pressure to be 128 kpa and the temperature and the volume to remain constant.[r-0.287 kj/kgk]

Acommercial grade cubical freezer, 4 m on a side, has a composite wall consisting of an exterior sheet of 5.0-mm thick plain carbon steel (kst= 60.5 w/m k), an intermediate layer of 100-mm thick polyurethane insulation (kins 0.02 w/m k), and an inner sheet of 5.0- mm thick aluminium alloy (kal polyurethane insulation and both metallic sheets are each characterized by a thermal contact resistance of r 2.5 x 104 m2 k/w. (a) what is the steady-state cooling load that must be maintained by the refrigerator under conditions for which the outer and inner surface temperatures are 25°c and -5°c, respectively? (b) for power saving purpose, which wall material should be increased/reduced in. thickness in order to reduce 50% of the cooling load found in part (a)? redesign the thickness of the proposed material. 177 w/m-k). adhesive interfaces between the q=575.93 w
