Thermodynamics: Calculating Outside Temperature of a Greenhouse with Heat Loss

[pinnacleprouk]

Homework Statement

The rate of heat loss to the outside through a 10mm-thick glass roof of a green house is 120kW. The length and breadth of the glass material of the roof are 20m and 2m, respectively. Calculate the temperature of the outside if the temperature inside the green-house is 25 degrees C.

Assume thermal conductivity of the glass material is 1.0W/m/degrees C.

Please help as I don't know where to start.

There is an equation that relates heat conducted and temperature. It involves the thermal conductivity too.

The fact that you have been assigned this problem means that this equation is somewhere in your textbook, lecture notes, or class handouts. Find this equation in your textbook, lecture notes, or class handouts -- that is where to start.
