Okay, so I'm going to be taking Chemical Dynamics this term (ugh) and the professor has already put the first three homeworks up on myWPI. And, okay, he did put a bunch of extra credit problems in, but. This is one of the problems from the first set:

Two parallel metal plates have T1 = 300 K and T2 = 298 K and are positioned 1 cm apart. The space

...That looks fun.

I don't even know what half of those units mean.

[surexit]

Um. I don't know what any of them mean? So you're already ahead! :D

I think it's Thermo. T=temperature, P=pressure, Cv,m=mass of the control volume. I'm not sure what the W in the W/cm2 stands for. I know what σ stands for, but I'm blanking on it now.

... yes, I do in fact know what T and P are, thank you. :|

[immortality]

Well, I figured, I was going through and listing them.

I'm really worry about the whole physics and chemistry mashup thing, though. It sounds dreadful. *hugs*

W is probably watts but those are for power (which is weird for a heat transfer problem but it is power over an area so maybe it works?).

You just broke me.

*cling* It is all thermo. I am going to die, Shay, this class is going to kill me.
