What is the purpose of using infrared photography if hot objects are often red to our eyes?
The more powerful radiation heat is in the form of infrared light, which we cannot see with our natural eyes. Therefore, infrared photography allows us to “see” the heat given off by objects even if the material is not hot enough for there to be a color change.

6. Test Review Solutions Natural Convection Forced Convection
What are the two types of convection? Explain each.
Natural Convection
Fluid surrounding a heat source receives heat and rises (due to lower density)
Surrounding cooler fluid moves in to replace it.
Cooler fluid is heated, rises, and cycle continues.
Forced Convection
Fans or other means are used to propel a fluid.
An convection current is induced.
Car engine and A/C are examples

Test Review Solutions
Show mathematically why you would rather someone push against you with 10 lbs. of force on a 50 square inches piece of wood than with a square inch pinhead. (Hint: calculate the pressure of each)
Write given information:
F = 10 lbs
A1 = 50 in2
A2 = in2
P1 = ?
P2 = ?
Write formula and solve:
P1 = F1 / A1 P2 = F2 / A2
= (10 lbs) / (50 in2 ) = (10 lbs) / ( in2 )
P1 = 0.2 psi P1 = psi
I would rather someone use a block of wood since the pressure is MUCH less.

14. Test Review
Test Review Solutions
On a separate sheet of paper write three new, different problems related to fluid technology. Use your previous problem sheet for examples. One problem should require use of the basic P = F / A formula. One problem should be a simple Boyle’s Law problem. One problem should use the diagram below. After writing these three problems, solve them.
