A solid lead cylinder 0.6-m in diameter and 0.6-m long, initially at a uniform temperature of 121°C, is dropped into a 21°C liquid bath in which the heat transfer coefficient h cis 1135 W/(m2 K). Plot the temperature-time history of the center of this cylinder and compare it with the time histories of a 0.6 m-diameter, infinitely long lead cylinder and a lead slab 0.6 m-thick.

GIVEN
