    and laid out on a rack in a refrigerator at 5 °C. The apples have approximately the same physical
    properties as water and average heat transfer coefficient (h) is approximately 6 W/m-K due to
    natural convection.

    3. In areas where the air temperature remains below 0°C for prolonged periods of time, the
    freezing of water in underground pipes is a major concern. Fortunately, the soil remains relatively
    warm during those periods,and it takes weeks for the subfreezing temperatures to reach the water
    mains in the ground. Thus, the soil effectively serves as an insulation to protect the water from the
    freezing atmospheric temperatures in winter. The ground at a particular location is covered with
    snowpack at - 8°C for a continuous period of 60 days, and the average soil properties at that
    location are k=0.35 W/m °C and a =0.15 x 10°m/s. Assuming an initial uniform temperature of
    8°C for the ground, determine the minimum burial depth to prevent the water pipes from freezing.

    25 °C with an average heat transfer coefficient of 7 W/m²-°C. The initial temperature of the plate is
    100°C. How long does it take for the temperature of the plate to reach 50 °C?
    The properties of copper are:
    Density: 8950 kg/m'
    Specific heat: 385 J/kg-°C
    Thermal conductivity: 386 W/m-°C.
