1.6 Exercise 30

Avg difficulty 2.5

Some stove tops are smooth ceramic for easy cleaning. If the ceramic is 0.600 cm thick and heat conduction occurs through a 14 cm radius and at a rate of 2256 W, what is the temperature difference across it? Ceramic has the same thermal conductivity as glass and brick.
