Consider heat transfer between two identical hot solid bodies and their environments. The first solid is dropped in a large container filled with water, while the second one is allowed to cool naturally in the air. For which solid is the lumped system analysis more likely to be applicable? Why?

For Second Solid Lumped System is Applicabe

Explanation:

Considering heat transfer between two identical hot solid bodies and their environments -

If the first solid is dropped in a large container filled with water, while the second one is allowed to cool naturally in the air than for second solid, the lumped system analysis more likely to be applicable The  reason is that a lumped system analysis is more likely to be applicable in the air than in water as the convection heat transfer coefficient so that the Biot number is less than or equal to 0.1 that is much smaller in air

Biot number = the ratio of conduction resistance within the body to convection resistance at the surface of the body

∴ For a lumped system analysis Biot number should be less than 0.1

The car would move to the right with 150 n of force. the 150 n of force from friction and air resistance slows the car from moving to the right with 300 n of force.
