The description of body-heat loss due to convection involves a coefficient of convection, Kc, which depends on wind velocity according to the following equation. Kc = 4?4v + 1 Find the rate of change of the coefficient with respect to the wind velocity. Kc' =

Chemistry: Wind Chill At $0^{\circ}$ Celsius, the heat loss $H$ (in kilocalories per square meter per hour) from a person's body can be modeled by $$ H=33(10 \sqrt{v}-v+10.45) $$ where $v$ is the wind speed (in meters per second). (a) Find $\frac{d H}{d v}$ and interpret its meaning in this situation. (b) Find the rates of change of $H$ when $v=2$ and when $v=5$

Hot air at 80°C is blown over a 2m x 4m flat surface at 45°C. If the average convection heat transfer coefficient is 55 W/m²·K, determine the rate of heat transfer from the air to the plate, in kW.

The wind-chill index is modeled by the function $$ W = 13.12 + 0.6215T - 11.37v^{0.16} + 0.3965Tv^{0.16} $$ where $ T $ is the temperature $ (^\circ C ) $ and $ v $ is the wind speed (km/h). When $ T = -15^{\circ}C $ and $ v $ = 30 km/h, by how much would you expect the apparent temperature $ W $ to drop if the actual temperature decreases by $ 1^\circ C $? What if the wind speed increases by 1 km/h?
