In this problem you will estimate the heat lost by a typical house, assuming that the temperature inside is tin=20∘c and the tem

perature outside is tout=0∘c. the walls and uppermost ceiling of a typical house are supported by 2×6-inch wooden beams (kwood=0.12w/m/k) with fiberglass insulation (kins=0.04w/m/k) in between. the true depth of the beams is actually 558 inches, but we will take the thickness of the walls and ceiling to be lwall=18cm to allow for the interior and exterior covering. assume that the house is a cube of length l=9.0m on a side. assume that the roof has very high conductivity, so that the air in the attic is at the same temperature as the outside air. ignore heat loss through the ground.

Step 1:

<span>Calculate the effective thermal conductivity of the wall or ceiling:
</span>
K_eff = [ (13 ÷ 8)(0.12) + (16 - (13 ÷ 8)) × (0.04)] ÷ 16 


K_eff =<span> [ 0.195 + 0.565] </span>÷<span> 16

</span>
K_eff = 0.76 ÷ 16
 

K_eff = 0.0475 W/ (m K) 


Step 2:

Calculate <span>the interior ceiling area:

</span>Area of each of the interior side walls = <span>8.82 m x 8.64 m
                                                                = 76.2 m</span>²

Area of the interior ceiling = 8.64 m × <span>8.64 m
</span>                                             = 74.6 m²

H = - k·A·(Δ - T) ÷ <span>(thickness)
</span>
H = - 0.0475 ÷ (379.45 × 20) ÷  45/8

H = - ( - 0.95 × 379.45 ) ÷<span> 0.1429
</span>
H = <span>2.52 kW </span>

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

51,200 divided by 52. (52 weeks in a year.) 984.615385 is answer. So each week he gets paid $984.62. So then we multiply that by 3 since we are finding 40% of 3 weeks of pay. $984.62x3= $2953.86. Then we multiply that by 40%.. $2953.86x40%= Answer is $11181.54
