5. A pipe with an outside diameter of 2.5 inches is insulated with 2 inches layer of asbestos (k = 0.396 Btu- in/hr-ft²-°F), followed by a layer of cork 1.5 inches thick (k = 0.30 Btu-in/hr-ft²-°F). If the temperature at the inner surface of the pipe is 290°F and at the outer surface of the cork is 90°F, calculate the heat loss per 100 ft of insulated pipe. (Btu/hr)
