A 1-cm-diameter, 30-cm long fin made of aluminum (k = 237 W/m•ºC) is attached to a surface at 80ºC. The surface is exposed to ambient air at 22ºC with a heat transfer coefficient of 18 W/m2•ºC. If the fin can be assumed to be very long, the rate of heat transfer from the fin is

(a) 2.0 W

(b) 3.2 W

(c) 4.4 W

(d) 5.5 W
