- (a) What is the rate of heat conduction through the 3.00-cm-thick fur of a large animal having a 1.40m2 surface area? Assume that the animal’s skin temperature is 32.0C, that tile air temperature is 5.00C, and that fur has the same thermal conductivity as air. (b) What food intake will the animal need in one day to replace this heat transfer?arrow_forward(a) Calculate the rate of heat conduction through a double-paned window that has a 1.50m3 area and is made of two panes of 0.800-cm-thick glass separated by a 1.00-cm air gap. The inside surface temperature is 15.0C, while that on the outside is 10.0C. (Hint: There are identical temperature drops across the two glass panes. First find these and then the temperature drop across the air gap. This problem ignores the increased heat transfer in the air gap due to convection.) (b) Calculate the rate of heat conduction through a 1.60-cm-thick window of the same area and with the same temperatures. Compare your answer with that for part (a).arrow_forward(a) A firewalker runs across a bed of hot coals without sustaining burns. Calculate the heat transferred by conduction into the sole of one foot of a firewalker given that the bottom of the foot is a 3.00-mm-thick callus with a conductivity at the low end of the range for wood and its density is 300kg/m3. The area of contact is 25.0cm2, the temperature of the coals is 700C, and the time in contact is 1.00 s. (b) What temperature increase is produced in the 25.0cm3 of tissue affected? (c) What effect do you think this will have on the tissue, keeping in mind that a callus is made of dead cells?arrow_forward

Calculate the temperature of the tent canvas based on the following information: The shirtless rider’s skin temperature is 34.0C and has an emissivity of 0.970. The exposed area of skin is 0.400m2. He receives radiation at the rate of 20.0 W—half what you would calculate if the entire region behind him was hot. The rest of the surroundings are at 34.0C. (b) Discuss how this situation would change if the sun lit side of the tent was nearly pure white and if the rider was covered by a white tunic.arrow_forward

(a) If you place a 0.25-kg aluminum pot containing 2.0 liters of water at 20.C on this burner, how long will it take to bring the water to a boil, assuming all the heat from the burner goes into the pot?
