One end of a $2.35\,m$ long and $2.0\,cm$ radius aluminium rod $(K = 235\,W\cdot m^{-1}K^{-1})$ is held at $20^{\circ}C$. The other end of the rod is in contact with a block of ice at its melting point. The rate in $kg\cdot s^{-1}$ at which ice melts is (Take latent heat of fusion for ice as $\frac{10}{3} \times 10^5\,J\cdot kg^{-1}$)

Two plates of the same area are placed in contact. Their thicknesses as well as their thermal conductivities are in the ratio $2:3$. The outer surface of one plate is maintained at $10^{\circ} C$ and that of the other at $0^{\circ} C$. The temperature at the common surface is (in $^{\circ} C$)

The temperature of the water of a pond is $0^{\circ} C$ while that of the surrounding atmosphere is $-20^{\circ} C$. If the density of ice is $\rho$, the coefficient of thermal conductivity is $k$, and the latent heat of melting is $L$, then the thickness $Z$ of the ice layer formed increases as a function of time $t$ as:

Two plates of equal area are placed in contact with each other. Their thicknesses are $2.0 \ cm$ and $5.0 \ cm$. The temperature of the outer surface of the first plate is $-20^{\circ}C$ and the temperature of the outer surface of the second plate is $20^{\circ}C$. If the ratio of their thermal conductivities is $2:5$,find the temperature of the contact surface in $^{\circ}C$.
