Question: A solid conducting body of initial temperature ( T _ { 1 , 0 } ) is immersed suddenly in an amount of

A solid conducting body of initial temperature \( T_{1,0}\) is immersed suddenly in an amount of incompressible liquid of initial temperature \(\boldsymbol{T}_{2,0}\). The respective heat capacities of the immersed body and the initial liquid are \((m c)_{1}\) and \((m c)_{2}\), where \( m \) and \( c \) denote the respective masses and specific heats of the two entities. The external (wetted) surface of the immersed body is \( A \), and the convective heat transfer coefficient between the body and the liquid is \( h \)(constant). Treating the immersed body and the surrounding liquid as two lumped capacitance systems, derive the expressions for the temperature of the immersed body and its surrounding liquid over time \(\left(T_{1}(t)\right.\) and \(\left.T_{2}(t)\right)\).
(Note that what distinguishes this problem form the system treated in class is the finiteness of the liquid pool. Therefore, the lumped temperature of the liquid \( T 2\) varies under the influence of the heat transfer from the immersed body).
