The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will use the formula for heat transfer through conduction: \[ Q = K \cdot A \cdot \frac{(T_1 - T_2)}{L} \cdot t \] Where: - \( Q \) = heat transferred (in Joules) - \( K \) = thermal conductivity (in kJ/s/m/°C) - \( A \) = area of cross-section (in m²) - \( T_1 \) = temperature at one end (in °C) - \( T_2 \) = temperature at the other end (in °C) - \( L \) = length of the rod (in m) - \( t \) = time (in seconds) ### Step 1: Convert the area of cross-section from cm² to m² Given: - Area \( A = 5.0 \, \text{cm}^2 \) Convert to m²: \[ A = 5.0 \, \text{cm}^2 \times \left(\frac{1 \, \text{m}}{100 \, \text{cm}}\right)^2 = 5.0 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{m}^2 \] ### Step 2: Identify the given values - Length of the rod \( L = 1.0 \, \text{m} \) - Temperature difference \( T_1 - T_2 = 250 - 50 = 200 \, \text{°C} \) - Thermal conductivity \( K = 2.0 \times 10^{-1} \, \text{kJ/s/m/°C} = 200 \, \text{J/s/m/°C} \) (since \( 1 \, \text{kJ} = 1000 \, \text{J} \)) - Time \( t = 5.0 \, \text{minutes} = 5 \times 60 = 300 \, \text{s} \) ### Step 3: Substitute the values into the formula Now, substituting the values into the heat transfer equation: \[ Q = K \cdot A \cdot \frac{(T_1 - T_2)}{L} \cdot t \] \[ Q = 200 \, \text{J/s/m/°C} \cdot 5.0 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{m}^2 \cdot \frac{200 \, \text{°C}}{1.0 \, \text{m}} \cdot 300 \, \text{s} \] ### Step 4: Calculate \( Q \) Calculating step-by-step: 1. Calculate \( K \cdot A \): \[ 200 \cdot 5.0 \times 10^{-4} = 0.1 \, \text{J/°C} \] 2. Calculate \( \frac{(T_1 - T_2)}{L} \): \[ \frac{200}{1} = 200 \, \text{°C/m} \] 3. Combine the results: \[ Q = 0.1 \cdot 200 \cdot 300 \] \[ Q = 6000 \, \text{J} \] ### Step 5: Convert Joules to calories Using the conversion \( 1 \, \text{cal} = 4.18 \, \text{J} \): \[ Q = \frac{6000 \, \text{J}}{4.18 \, \text{J/cal}} \approx 1435.4 \, \text{cal} \] ### Final Answer The total heat that will flow in the rod in 5.0 minutes is approximately \( 1435.4 \, \text{cal} \).
