First we have to calculate the volume of the living room:
V = L x W x H = 4.5 m * 3.4 m * 2.9 m
V = 44.37 m³
We know that Density = 1.29 kg/m²
D = m / V
m = D · V
m = 1.29 kg/m³ · 44.37 m³
m = 57.2373 kg ≈ 57.2 kg
Answer: The approximate mass of air in living room is 57.2 kg.
Answer:
Q = - 4312 W = - 4.312 KW
Explanation:
The rate of heat of the concrete slab can be calculated through Fourier's Law of heat conduction. The formula of the Fourier's Law of heat conduction is as follows:
Q = - kA dt/dx
Integrating from one side of the slab to other along the thickness dimension, we get:
Q = - kA(T₂ - T₁)/L
Q = kA(T₁ - T₂)/t
where,
Q = Rate of Heat Loss = ?
k = thermal conductivity = 1.4 W/m.k
A = Surface Area = (11 m)(8 m) = 88 m²
T₁ = Temperature of Bottom Surface = 10°C
T₂ = Temperature of Top Surface = 17° C
t = Thickness of Slab = 0.2 m
Therefore,
Q = (1.4 W/m.k)(88 m²)(10°C - 17°C)/0.2 m
<u>Q = - 4312 W = - 4.312 KW</u>
<u>Here, negative sign shows the loss of heat.</u>
