A round solid cylinder made of a plastic material (a = 6x107 m²/s) is initially at a uniform temperature of 20°C and is well insulated along its lateral surface and at one end. At time t = 0, heat is applied to the left boundary causing To to increase linearly with time at a rate of 1°C/s. Using the explicit method with Fo= 1/2, derive the finite-difference equations for nodes 1, 2, 3, and 4. Also, format a table with headings of p, t (s), and the nodal temperatures To to T. Determine the surface temperature To when T4-35°C. To T 12 13 L TA = 24 mm
