The length of a metal rod is $20 \ cm$ and its area of cross-section is $4 \ cm^2$. If one end of the rod is kept at a temperature of $100^{\circ} C$ and the other end is kept in ice at $0^{\circ} C$, then the mass of the ice melted in $7 \ minutes$ is (Thermal conductivity of the metal $= 90 \ W \ m^{-1} \ K^{-1}$ and latent heat of fusion of ice $= 336 \times 10^3 \ J \ kg^{-1}$) (in $g$)

Three conducting rods of the same material and cross-section are shown in the figure. The temperatures of $A$,$D$,and $C$ are maintained at $20^{\circ} C$,$90^{\circ} C$,and $0^{\circ} C$ respectively. If there is no heat flow in rod $AB$,the ratio of the lengths of $BD$ and $BC$ is:

Two metallic blocks $M_{1}$ and $M_{2}$ of the same cross-sectional area are connected to each other as shown in the figure. If the thermal conductivity of $M_{2}$ is $K$,then the thermal conductivity of $M_{1}$ will be $xK$. Find the value of $x$. [Assume steady-state heat conduction]

$A$ metal rod $AB$ of length $10x$ has its one end $A$ in ice at $0^{\circ}C$ and the other end $B$ in water at $100^{\circ}C$. If a point $P$ on the rod is maintained at $400^{\circ}C$,then it is found that equal amounts of water and ice evaporate and melt per unit time. The latent heat of evaporation of water is $540 \ cal/g$ and latent heat of melting of ice is $80 \ cal/g$. If the point $P$ is at a distance of $\lambda x$ from the ice end $A$,find the value of $\lambda$. (Neglect any heat loss to the surrounding.)

The coefficient of thermal conductivity of a metal rod depends on its

The outer faces of a rectangular slab made of equal thickness of iron and brass are maintained at $100^{\circ} C$ and $0^{\circ} C$ respectively. The temperature at the interface is ........... $^{\circ} C$ (Thermal conductivity of iron and brass are $0.2$ and $0.3$ respectively.)
