A particle (charge 7.5 ?C) is released from rest at a point on the x axis, x = 10 cm. It begins to move due to the presence of a 2.0-?C charge which remains fixed at the origin. What is the kinetic energy of the particle at the instant it passes the point x = 1.0 m?

a. 3.0 J
b. 1.8 J
c. 2.4 J
d. 1.2 J

Derive an expression for the temperature distribution in an infinitely long rod of uniform cross section within which there is uniform heat generation at the rate of 1 W/m. Assume that the rod is attached to a surface at Ts and is exposed through a convective heat transfer coefficient h to a fluid at Tf.

GIVEN
• An infinitely long rod with internal heat generation
• Temperature at one end = Ts
• Heat generation rate ( q
GA) = 1 W/m
• Convective heat transfer coefficient = hc
• Ambient fluid temperature = Tf
FIND
• Expression for the temperature distribution
ASSUMPTIONS
• The rod is in steady state
• The thermal conductivity (k) is constant
