A very thin silicon chip is bonded to a 6-mm thick aluminum substrate by a 0.02-mm thick epoxy glue. Both surfaces of this chip-aluminum system are cooled by air at 250C, where the convective heat transfer coefficient of air flow is 100 W/(m2 K). If the heat dissipation per unit area from the chip is 104 W/m2 under steady state condition, draw the thermal circuit for the system and determine the operating temperature of the chip.

All the following statements about Venus are true. Which one offers evidence of a global repaving about a billion years ago?

A) Venus's largest features are three elevated regions that look somewhat like continents. B) Venus has many circular features, called coronae, which appear to be tectonic in origin.
