Question: The temperature distribution across a wall 1 m thick at a certain instant of time is given as T ( x ) = a +

The temperature distribution across a wall 1 m thick at a certain instant of time is given as T(x)=a+bx+cx2, where T is in C and x is in meters, while a=900C,b=-300Cm, and c=-50Cm2. A uniform heat generation q=1000Wm3, is present in the wall of area 10m2 having the properties =1600kgm3,k=40Wm.K and cp=4kJkg.K. Determine:
a) the rate of heat transfer entering the wall
