Leidenfrost effect. A water drop wall last about $$1\ s$$ on a hot skillet wiht a temperature between $$100^{o}C$$ and about $$200^{o}C$$. However, if the skillet is several minutes, an effect named after an early investigator. The longer lifetime is due to the support of a thin layer of air and water vapor that separates the drop from the metal (by distance $$L$$ in Fig $$18-48$$). Let $$L=0.100\ mm$$, and assume that the drop is flat with height $$h=1.50\ mm$$ and bottom face area $$A=4.00\times 10^{-6}m^{2}$$. Also assume that the skillet has a constant temperature $$T_{s}=300^{o}C$$ and the drop has a temperature of $$100^{o}C$$. Water has density $$\rho =1000\ kg/m^{3}$$, and the supporting layer has thermal conductivity $$k=0.026\ W/m.K$$
At what rate is energy conducted from the skillet to the drop through the drop's bottom surface?

Icicles. Liquid water coats an active (growing) icicle and extends up a short, narrow tube along the central axis. Because the water-ice interface must have a temperature of $$0^oC$$, the water in the tube cannot lose energy through the sides of the icicle or down through the tip because there is no temperature changes in those direction. It can lose energy and freeze only by sending energy up ()through distance L to the top of the icicle, where the temperature $$T_r$$ can be below $$0^oC$$. Take $$L=0.12\ m$$ and $$T_r=-5^oC$$.

The residual deformation of an elastic rod can be roughly described by using the following model. If the elongation of the rod $$\Delta l < x_0$$ (where $$x_0$$ is the quantity present for the given rod), the force required to cause the elongation $$\Delta l$$ is determined by Hooke's law: $$F = k \Delta l$$, where k is the rigidity of the rod. If $$\Delta l > x_0$$, the force does not depend on elongation any longer (the material of the rod starts "flowing"). If the load is then removed, the elongation of the rod will decrease along CD which for the sake of simplicity will be taken straight and parallel to the segment AB (Fig.). Therefore, after the load has been removed completely, the rod remains deformed (point D in the figure). Let us suppose that the rod is initially stretched by $$\Delta l = x > x_0$$ and then the load is removed. Determine the maximum change of $$\Delta T$$ in the rod temperature if its heat capacity is C and the rod are thermally insulated.
