AI Thread Summary
To determine the heat flow through the oven glass, the formula Q=tkA(θ2-θ1)/x is applied, where Q is the heat transfer, t is time, k is thermal conductivity, A is the area, θ2 is the oven temperature, θ1 is the kitchen temperature, and x is the thickness of the glass. The user calculated Q to be 6.9 MJ, while the expected answer is 6.2 MJ. The discrepancy arises from the assumption of the kitchen temperature, which was not specified in the problem; the user assumed 0°C instead of a typical room temperature. Clarification on the kitchen temperature is essential for accurate calculations. The discussion emphasizes the importance of understanding all variables in thermal conduction problems.

Homework Statement


The door of an oven has a piece of glass of dimensions 20cm X 30 cm and thickness 0.50cm.when the interior of the oven is at temperature 200°C,determine the quantity of heat that flow through the glass in one hour.(for glass,K=0.80 Wm^-1K^-1)


Homework Equations


Q=tkA(θ2-θ1) /x


The Attempt at a Solution


Q=(3600)(0.80)X(0.2x0.3)(200) / (0.50 x 10^-2)

THe answer given is 6.2MJ.i get 6.9MJ.WHY?please help me to solve this question.

Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'

TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...

Thread 'Correct statement about a reservoir with an outlet pipe'

The answer to this question is statements (ii) and (iv) are correct. (i) This is FALSE because the speed of water in the tap is greater than speed at the water surface (ii) I don't even understand this statement. What does the "seal" part have to do with water flowing out? Won't the water still flow out through the tap until the tank is empty whether the reservoir is sealed or not? (iii) In my opinion, this statement would be correct. Increasing the gravitational potential energy of the...
