Question:

A copper cylinder 20.3 cm long with a diameter of 2.54 cm is being used to evaluate the surface coefficient in a laboratory experiment. When heated to a uniform temperature of 32.5°C and then plunged into a -1°C liquid bath, the center temperature of the cylinder reaches a value of 4.8°C in 3 min. Assuming the heat exchange between the cylinder and water bath to be purely by convection, what value for the surface coefficient is indicated?
