A carpenter builds an exterior house wall with a layer of wood 3.1 cm thick on the outside and a layer of Styrofoam insulation 2

.3 cm thick on the inside wall surface. The wood has k = 0.080W/(m⋅K), and the Styrofoam has k = 0.010 W/(m⋅K). The interior surface temperature is 19.0 ∘C, and the exterior surface temperature is -15.0 ∘C.A.)What is the temperature at the plane where the wood meets the Styrofoam?
B.)What is the rate of heat flow per square meter through this wall?

Answer: T = -0.213°c

Heat flow = 38.2 w/m²

Explanation:

given data:

Wood = 0.031m thick

Styrofoam = 0.023m thick

Wood = k ( 0.080W/m.k)

Styrofoam = k (0.010W/m.k)

Temperature of wood = -15°c

Temperature of styrofoam = 19°c

(a) heat flow in wood and styrofoam must be equal

KAdT/ L = KAdT/ L

0.080 * A * ( T - ( -15) ) / 0.031 = 0.010 * A * ( T - ( 19°c) ) / 0.023

T = -0.213°c

(b) heat flow

H = KAdT / L

H = 0.080 * A * ( -0.213°c - ( -15°c) ) / 0.031

= 38.2 w/m²

A light ray passing from medium 1 to medium 2 is bent away from the perpendicular normal to the boundary surface. What happens t
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

The answer is a for Plato users.

Explanation:

Since the angle of the refracted ray moves away from the normal, it must be traveling in a faster medium.

An average human weighs about 600 N
NemiM [27]

Answer:

The distance between them, x = 5809.47 m

Explanation:

Given,

The average weight of a human, w = 600 N

The charge carried by the humans, q = 1.5 C

If 600 N of force acts between two opposite charges, the distance between the charges can be derived from the Coulomb's laws of force,

                          <em>F=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}\frac{qq}{x^{2}}</em>

Where,

                         \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}} = 9 x 10⁹ N m² C⁻²

Therefore

                          x² = 9 x 10⁹ X 1.5² / 600

                              = 33750000

                           x = 5809.46 m

Hence, the distance between the humans should be, x = 5809.47 m
