Oil whose temperature is 30°C is flowed through a pipe with a diameter of 50 cm.  The pipe is in an environment where the temperature is 20°C.  So that not a lot of heat comes out of the pipe, the pipe is wrapped with an insulating material (k = 0.007 W/mK) as thick as 5 cm.  If the convection coefficient of the outer surface of the pipe is 12 W/m²K, calculate the heat flow from the pipe per meter of length
