A quiescent fluid at temperature $T_3$ is confined between two vertical parallel plates. While plate 1 is kept at temperature $T_1$ and plate 2 is maintained at temperature $T_{2^{\prime}}$ a velocity profile between the plates, as shown in the figure below, is generated due to heat transfer. Which one of the following options shows the correct relations among $T_1, T_2$, and $T_3$ ?

Consider incompressible laminar flow over a flat plate with freestream velocity of $u_{\infty}$. The Nusselt number corresponding to this flow velocity is $Nu_1$. If the freestream velocity is doubled, the Nusselt number changes to $Nu_2$. Choose the correct option for $Nu_{2}/Nu_{1}$.
Consider a hydrodynamically fully developed laminar flow through a circular pipe with the flow along the axis (i.e., z direction). In the following statements, $T$ is the temperature of the fluid, $T_w$ is the wall temperature and $T_m$ is the bulk mean temperature of the fluid. Which one of the following statements is TRUE?
