A mountain climber wears a goose down jacket 33cm thick


A mountain climber wears a goose down jacket 3.3cm thick with total surface area 1.2m^2 . The temperature at the surface of the clothing is -20C and at the skin is 34 C .

Part A Determine the rate of heat flow by conduction through the jacket assuming it is dry and the thermal conductivity k is that of down. Express your answer using two significant figures. Q/t=_____W

Part B Determine the rate of heat flow by conduction through the jacket assuming the jacket is wet, so k is that of water and the jacket has matted to 0.40 cm thickness. Express your answer using two significant figure. Q/t=_____W
