A window measures 36 inches x 50 inches and there are 20 of these windows in a structure. The U-factor for this single pane metal window is 1.3 Btu/hr-ft2-oF. U-factor is the conduction factor (and thus the reciprocal of an R-factor) and is equal to conductivity of the material k over the conducting pathlength L. Assume conduction only. a. Estimate the heat transfer (in Joules per day) through these 20 windows when the inside temperature is 20C and the outdoor temperature stays at -15C. b. The U-factor of replacement windows (double pane, argon filled, low-E vinyl frames) is 0.31 Btu/hr-ft2-oF. How much heat is transferred in a day for this case?

Hello. Can you please help answer the question shown in the photo? It is a 3-part question which I have attempted many times. I was able to calculate the correct answer for part 2, but part 1 and part 3 still says I am incorrect. Please show how to properly solve the problem. The topic is heat transfer. Thank you.
1. A motor coil can be modeled as a hollow copper cylinder with an outer diameter of 0 50 mm, an inner diameter of 40 mm, and a length of 60 mm. The motor stalls at time t = 0 and, at this point, the copper experiences a step input in electrical heating of Po u(t), where Po is 350 W. Assume that there is little time for significant heat loss to the environment so that the copper cylinder can be considered to be insulated. If the initial temperature is 30 °C, find the temperature as a function of time, T(t), analytically using Laplace transforms. Calculate the time required to reach the breakdown temperature of the wire insulation, which is approximately 250 °C. Write a script file in MATLAB® to: (a) determine the time for the copper to reach 250 °C using the command find; and (b) plot T(t) over this time interval. Copper has a density of 8960 kg/m³ and a specific heat of 390 J/kg-°C. 25 mm 20 mm P(t) = Pou(t)
