A steel ball of diameter 60 mm is initially in thermal equilibrium at 1030°C in a furnace. It is suddenly removed from the furnace and cooled in ambient air at 30°C, with convective heat transfer coefficient h = 20 W/m2K. The thermo-physical properties of steel are: density ρ=7800 kg/m3, conductivity k=40 W/mK and specific heat c=600 J/kgK. The time required in seconds to cool the steel ball in air from 1030°C to 430°C is
A
519
B
931
C
1195
D
2144

Correct : d
