Question 1: Your bear cooler is made of 20-mm-thick polystyrene (k = 0.021 W/m.K) and has interior dimensions of 0.5 mx0.3 m X 0.3 m. If you fill the inside with an ice-water mixture (so the temperature is maintained at 4°C) and leave the cooler on the porch on hot summer day (ambient temperature of 30°C ), what is the heat flux through the container wall? Assume negligible heat gain through the base of the cooler. You may have to...
