Ice has formed on a shallow pond and a steady state is reached where the temperature of air above the ic e is - 8 . 0 0 ° Cand the bottom of the pond has a temperature of 6.00° C. The depth of the ice and water combined is 1.80 m; what isthe depth of the ice alone? Use a thermal conductivity o f 1 . 6 7 W / m · K fo r ic e a nd 0 . 5 0 2 W / m · K fo r water. A.

The depth of the ice = 1.47 m

Explanation:

Thermal conductivity of water,

Thermal conductivity of ice,

Temperature above ice,

Temperature at the bottom of the pond,

total depth of ice and water = 1.80 m

Let, transition between ice and water,  

At steady state;

Inserting all the parameters

the independent variable, or the one that is intentionally manipulated is the speed.

here are some information of the future of geothermal energy:

-the future of geothermal energy can pretty much be summed up with a single word: more

-scientists plan in going deeper than 120 meters

-we are hoping that one day, we will get all of our energy from renewable energy sources such as geothermal energy

hope this !
