Transcribed Image Text:Bebang owns a 830-mm-thick concrete brick table top that has an
area of 10,000,000 mm^2 and a 0.750-cm-thick glass plate that has
an area of 20,000 cm^2. Assuming the same temperature difference
across each, what is the ratio of the rate of heat conduction through
the plate with respect to the rate of heat conduction through the
table top? Use Table 10.1(given below) for the value of Thermal
Conductivity k.
