Animals in cold climates often depend on two layers of insulation: a layer of body fat [of thermal conductivity 0.200w/(m⋅k) ] surrounded by a layer of air trapped inside fur or down. we can model a black bear (ursus americanus) as a sphere 1.60m in diameter having a layer of fat 3.90cm thick. (actually, the thickness varies with the season, but we are interested in hibernation, when the fat layer is thickest.) in studies of bear hibernation, it was found that the outer surface layer of the fur is at 2.80∘c during hibernation, while the inner surface of the fat layer is at 30.9∘c a) what should the temperature at the fat-inner fur boundary be so that the bear loses heat at a rate of 51.4w ? b) how thick should the air layer (contained within the fur) be so that the bear loses heat at a rate of 51.4w ?

Asolid cylinder and a cylindrical shell have the same mass, same radius, and turn on frictionless, horizontal axles. the cylindrical shell has light-weight spokes connecting the shell to the axle. a rope is wrapped around each cylinder and tied to blocks of equal masses that are held the same height above the ground. both blocks are released simultaneously. the ropes do not slip. which block hits the ground first? or is it a tie?
