A transistor with a height of 0.4 cm and a diameter of 0.6 cm is mounted on a circuit board. The transistor is cooled by air flowing over it with an average heat transfer coefficient of 30 W/m^2K. If the air temperature is 55 C and the transistor case temperature is not to exceed 70 C, determine the amount of power this transistor can dissipate safely. Disregard any heat transfer from the transistor base.
