Chapter 18, Problem 72P

The average rate at which energy is conducted outward through the ground surface In North America is 54.0 mW/m2, and the average thermal conductivity of the near-surface rocks is 2.50 W/m · K. Assuming a surface temperature of 10.0°C, find the temperature at a depth of 35.0 km (near the base of the crust). Ignore the heat generated by the presence of radioactive elements.

The average rate at which energy is conducted outward through the ground surface in North America is 54.0 mW/m2, and the average thermal conductivity of the near-surface rocks is 2.50 W/mK. Assuming a surface temperature of 10.0 C, find the temperature at a depth of 35.0 km (near the base of the crust). Ignore the heat generated by the presence of radioactive elements.
Geologists measure conductive heat flow out of the earth by drilling holes (a few hundred meters deep) and measuring the temperature as a function of depth. Suppose that in a certain location the temperature increases by 20°C per kilometer of depth and the thermal conductivity of the rock is 2.5 W/m·K. What is the rate of heat conduction per square meter in this location? Assuming that this value is typical of other locations over all of earth's surface, at approximately what rate is the earth losing heat via conduction? (The radius of the earth is 6400 km.)
The average thermal conductivity of the walls (including windows) and roof of a house in the figure shown below is 4.8  10-4 kW/m · °C, and their average thickness is 20.8 cm. The house is heated with natural gas, with a heat of combustion (energy given off per cubic meter of gas burned) of 9,300 kcal/m3. How many cubic meters of gas must be burned each day to maintain an inside temperature of 25.9°C if the outside temperature is 0.0°C? Disregard surface air layers, radiation, and energy loss by heat through the ground. m3 A house has a rectangular base and a roof that peaks along a line above the center of the house and parallel to the length of the house. This roof slopes downward from the peak to each edge at an angle of 37.0° with the horizontal. The length of the front of the house is 10.0 meters. The width of the house is 8.00 meters. The height from the front of the house up to the edge of the roof is 5.00 meters.
