$A$ cylindrical rod with one end in a steam chamber and the other end in ice results in melting of $0.1 \ gm$ of ice per second. If the rod is replaced by another with half the length and double the radius of the first,and if the thermal conductivity of the material of the second rod is $\frac{1}{4}$ that of the first,the rate at which ice melts in $gm/sec$ will be:

$A$ rod of length $L$ with sides fully insulated is made of a material whose thermal conductivity varies with temperature $T$ as $K = \frac{\alpha}{T}$,where $\alpha$ is a constant. The ends of the rod are kept at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$. The temperature $T$ at a distance $x$ from the end kept at $T_1$ is:

An ice box is used to keep food cool,having a surface area of $1 \, m^2$ and a thickness of $5.0 \, cm$. The thermal conductivity of the ice box material is $K = 0.01 \, J/(m \cdot s \cdot ^\circ C)$. The inside temperature is maintained at $0 \, ^\circ C$ and the outside temperature is $30 \, ^\circ C$. If the latent heat of fusion of ice is $334 \times 10^3 \, J/kg$,calculate the mass of ice that melts in one day.

Three rods each of length $l$ and cross-sectional area $A$ are joined in series between two heat reservoirs as shown in the figure. Their thermal conductivities are $2K$,$K$,and $\frac{K}{2}$,respectively. Assuming that the conductors are insulated from the surroundings,the temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ of the junctions in the steady-state condition are,respectively:

Which of the following circular rods (given radius $r$ and length $l$),each made of the same material and whose ends are maintained at the same temperature difference,will conduct the most heat?
