A large metal cylinder with a bottom 2 m in diameter is made out of iron plate that is 5.2 mm thick. Water in the cylinder is heated by a burner that can maintain a 2.3 C° difference between the top and the bottom surface of the bottom plate. (a) How much energy is conducted through the plate in 5 minutes? (The thermal conductivity of iron is 67 W/m.K. ) (b) Illustrate the given problem.
