On february 15, 2013, a superbolide meteor (brighter than the sun) entered earth’s atmosphere over chelyabinsk, russia, and exploded at an altitude of 23.5 km. eyewitnesses could feel the intense heat from the fireball, and the blast wave from the explosion blew out windows in buildings. the blast wave took approximately 2 minutes 30 seconds to reach ground level. (a) what was the average velocity of the blast wave? b) compare this with the speed of sound, which is 343 m/s at sea level.

Consider a 1000 w iron whose base plate is made of 0.5 cm thick aluminum alloy 2024-t6 (ρ = 2770 kg/m3 and cp = 875 j/kg°c). the base plate has a surface area of 0.03 m2. initially, the iron is in thermal equilibrium with the ambient air at 22°c. assuming 90% of the heat generated in the resistance wires is transferred to the plate, determine the minimum time needed for the plate temperature to reach 200°c.
