◦
2.7 × 10−2

◦
8.9 × 10−5

◦
1.4 × 10−4

◦
3.6 × 10−3


Question 2

The R-value of an insulating material is the thickness of the material divided by its thermal conductivity. When an insulating material consists of three layers with R-values R1, R2 and R3, the overall R-value of the insulation is given by
