Halliday, Resnick & Walker β Temperature, Heat, and the First Law of Thermodynamics: Problem 20
In a certain experiment, a small radioactive source must move at selected, extremely slow speeds. This motion is accomplished by fastening the source to one end of an aluminum rod and heating the central section of the rod in a controlled way. If the effective heated section of the rod in Fig. 18.8 has length \(d = 2.00 \text{ cm}\), at what constant rate must the temperature of the rod be changed if the source is to move at a constant speed of \(100 \text{ nm/s}\)?
