Chapter 16, Problem 87GP
A grandfather clock has a simple brass pendulum of length L. One night, the temperature in the house is 25.0 °C and the period of the pendulum is 1.00 s. The clock keeps correct time at this temperature. If the temperature in the house quickly drops to 17.1 °C just after 10 P.M., and stays at that value, what is the actual time when the clock indicates that it is 10 A.M. the next morning?

You know that T is temperature (K) and x is the x-coordinate,
which is measured in meters. You also know that t is time (s) and the book uses à as the symbol for
thermal conductivity, whose unit is W/m.K. What must be the units of Q and ß?
The quantity of energy Q transferred by heat conduction through an insulating pad in time interval Δt is described by Q/Δt = κAΔT/d, where κ is the thermal conductivity of the material, A is the face area of the pad (perpendicular to the direction of heat flow), ΔT is the difference in temperature across the pad, and d is the thickness of the pad. In one trial to test material as lining for sleeping bags, 86.0 J of heat is transferred through a 3.40-cm-thick pad when the temperature on one side is 37.0°C and on the other side is 2.00°C. In a trial of the same duration with the same temperatures, how much heat will be transferred when more of the material is added to form a pad with the same face area and total thickness 8.41 cm?
