The area of the glass of a window of a room is $10\;m^2$ and thickness is $2\;mm$. The outer and inner temperatures are $40^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$ respectively. The thermal conductivity of glass in the $MKS$ system is $0.2\;W/(m\cdot K)$. The heat flowing into the room per second will be:

  • A
    $3 \times 10^4\;J/s$
  • B
    $2 \times 10^4\;J/s$
  • C
    $30\;J/s$
  • D
    $45\;J/s$
