Chapter 28, Problem 43P

The rate of heat flow (conduction) between two points on a cylinder heated at one end is given by

d Q d t = λ A d T d x

Where λ = a constant, A = the cylinder's cross-sectional area, Q = heat flow, T = temperature, t = time, and x = distance from the heated end. Because the equation involves two derivatives, wewill simplify this equation by letting

d T d x = 100 ( L x ) ( 20 t ) 100 x t

where L is the length of the rod. Combine the two equations and compute the heat flow for t = 0 to 25 s. The initial condition is Q ( 0 ) = 0 and the parameters are, A = 12  cm 2 , L = 20  cm , and x = 2.5 cm. Plot your results.
