A heat conducting rod, 1.40 m long, is made of an aluminum section that is 0.50 m long and a copper section that is 0.90 m long. Both sections have cross-sectional areas of of 0.00040 m2.
 
  The aluminum end and the copper end are maintained at temperatures of 40C and 280C, respectively. The thermal conductivity of aluminum is 205 W/mK of copper is 385 W/mK. The rate at which heat is conducted in the rod is closest to A) 20 W.
  B) 18 W.
  C) 23 W.
  D) 25 W.
  E) 28 W.

Question 2

A heat conducting rod, 0.90 m long, is made of an aluminum section that is 0.10 m long, and a copper section that is 0.80 m long. Both sections have cross-sectional areas of 0.00040 m2.
 
  The aluminum end is maintained at a temperature of 40C and the copper end is at 150. The thermal conductivity of aluminum is 205 W/mK and of copper is 385 W/mK. Steady state has been reached, and no heat is lost through the well-insulated sides of the rod. The temperature of the aluminum-copper junction in the rod is closest to A) 61C.
  B) 58C.
  C) 56C.
  D) 54C.
  E) 52C.

Walt Disney helped combat malaria by making an animated film in 1943 called The Winged Scourge. This short film starred the seven dwarfs and taught children that mosquitos transmit malaria, which is a very bad disease. It advocated the killing of mosquitos to stop the disease.

Vaccines prevent between 2.5 and 4 million deaths every year.

Computer programs are available that crosscheck a new drug's possible trade name with all other trade names currently available. These programs detect dangerous similarities between names and alert the manufacturer of the drug.

Did you know?

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).

Did you know?

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
