A concrete wall 0.20 m0.20\,\text{m} thick has an area of 10 m210\,\text{m}^2. The temperature difference between its two faces is 20 K20\,\text{K}. If the thermal conductivity of concrete is 1.5 W m−1 K−11.5\,\text{W}\,\text{m}^{-1}\,\text{K}^{-1}, calculate the rate of heat flow through the wall in watts.
