The rate of heat conduction out of a window on a winter day is rapid enough to chill the air next to it. To see just how rapidly windows conduct heat, calculate the rate of conduction in watts through a 2.82 m2 window that is 0.675 cm thick if the temperatures of the inner and outer surfaces are 5.00°C and −10.0°C, respectively. This rapid rate will not be maintained — the inner surface will cool, and frost may even form. The thermal conductivity of glass is 0.84 J/(s · m · °C).

Q = - 5264 W = - 5.26 KW

Here, negative sign indicates the outflow of heat

Explanation:

Fourier's Law of heat conduction, gives the following formula:

Q = - KAΔT/t

where,

Q = Rate of Heat Conduction out of window = ?

K = Thermal Conductivity of Glass = 0.84 W/m.°C

A =Surface Area of window = 2.82 m²

ΔT = Difference in Temperature of both sides of surface

ΔT = Inner Surface Temperature - Outer Surface Temperature= 5°C - (- 10°C)

ΔT = 15°C

t = thickness of window = 0.675 cm = 0.00675 m

Therefore,

Q = - (0.84 W/m.°C)(2.82 m²)(15°C)/0.00675 m

Q = - 5264 W = - 5.26 KW

Here, negative sign indicates the outflow of heat.

answer: the metamorphic rocks are formed when they are exposed to high pressure and high temperatures. this happens when one of the earth's plates comes in contact with the other plate by traveling in opposite directions, straight into each other or slipping under one another. the friction that is caused by this activity results in   melting of rocks and when it cools they are known as metamorphic rocks. this process needs a controlled amount of pressure and temperature otherwise it may turn into magma.
