S0 galaxies have spiral arms, but little to no gas and dust. This is believed to happen because ____

a. their gas has been cannibalized by other galaxies
b. they have had bursts of star formation during major collision the gas and dust formed new stars
c. starburst events have used up all of the gas and dust in the disk
d. gas and dust have been stripped from the galaxies as they pass through hot, intergalactic gas
e. tidal interactions have forced the gas into the central bulge

The Earth remains in orbit about the Sun, rather than falling in to the Sun, because

1.it is outside of the gravitational influence of the Sun. 2.the net force on the Earth is zero. 3.although the Earth is constantly being pulled toward the Sun, it is always moving with a velocity component perpendicular to the direction that it is being pulled. 4.none of these apply.

Consider a heat exchanger consisting of 12.5 mm OD copper tubes in a staggered arrangement with transverse spacing 25 mm, longitudinal spacing 30 mm, and 9 tubes in the longitudinal direction. Condensing steam at 150°C flows inside the tubes. The heat exchanger is used to heat a stream of air flowing at 5 m/s from 20°C to 32°C. What is the average heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop for the tube bank?

GIVEN
Staggered copper tube bank with condensing steam inside tubes and air flowing over the outside
Tube outside diameter (D) = 12.5 mm = 0.0125 m
Transverse spacing (ST) = 25 mm = 0.025 m
Longitudinal spacing (SL) = 30 mm = 0.03 m
Number of rows of tubes (N) = 9
Steam temperature (Ts) = 150°C
Air velocity (Us) = 5 m/s
Air temperature: Ta,in = 20°C Ta,out = 32°C
FIND
(a) The average heat transfer coefficient (hc)
(b) The pressure drop (?p)
ASSUMPTIONS
Steady state
Thermal resistance of the condensing steam and the copper tube is negligible. Therefore, the tube
surface temperature = Ts
