The roof of a house consists of a 15-cm-thick concrete slab (k 5 2 w/m·k) that is 15 m wide and 20 m long. the convection heat transfer coefficients on the inner and outer surfaces of the roof are 5 and 12 w/m2 ·k, respectively. on a clear winter night, the ambient air is reported to be at 10°c, while the night sky temperature is 100 k. the house and the interior surfaces of the wall are maintained at a constant temperature of 20°c. the emissivity of both surfaces of the concrete roof cen98187_ch03_p142-236.indd 212 14/02/14 4: 34 pm chapter 3 213 is 0.9. considering both radiation and convection heat transfers, determine the rate of heat transfer through the roof, and the inner surface temperature of the roof. if the house is heated by a furnace burning natural gas with an efficiency of 80 percent, and the price of natural gas is $1.20/therm (1 therm 5 105,500 kj of energy content), determine the money lost through the roof that night during a 14-h period

Aloaded platform of total mass 500 kg is supported by a dashpot and by a set of springs of effective stiffness 72 kn/m. it is observed that when the platform is depressed through a distance x = 12.5 cm below its equilibrium position and then released without any initial velocity; it reaches its equilibrium position in the shortest possible time without overshoot. find the position and velocity of the loaded platform 0.10 sec. after its release. if a further load of 400 kg is added to the platform, find, i) the frequency of damped vibrations, and i) the amplitude of vibration after 2 complete oscillations, given that the initial amplitude is 15 cm.
