A solid spherical bead of lead (uniform density = 11000 kg/m3) of diameter d = 0.1 mm sinks with a constant velocity V in a large stagnant pool of a liquid (dynamic viscosity = 1.1 × 10-3 kg∙m-1∙s-1). The coefficient of drag is given by $\rm C_D = \frac{24}{Re} $, where the Reynolds number (Re) is defined on the basis of the diameter of the bead. The drag force acting on the bead is expressed as $\rm D = (C_D) (0.5 \rho V^2) \left( \frac{\pi d^2}{4} \right), $ where ρ is the density of the liquid. Neglect the buoyancy force. Using g = 10 m/s2, the velocity V is __________ m/s.
A
$\frac{1}{24}$
B
$\frac{1}{6}$
C
$\frac{1}{18}$
D
$\frac{1}{12}$

A flat plate made of cast iron is exposed to a solar flux of 600 W/m2 at an ambient temperature of 25 °C. Assume that the entire solar flux is absorbed by the plate. Cast iron has a low-temperature absorptivity of 0.21. Use Stefan-Boltzmann constant = 5.669 × 10-8 W/m2-K4. Neglect all other modes of heat transfer except radiation. Under the aforementioned conditions, the radiation equilibrium temperature of the plate is __________ °C (round off to the nearest integer).
