$A$ slab of stone of area $0.36\, m^2$ and thickness $0.1\, m$ is exposed on the lower surface to steam at $100^{\circ} C$. $A$ block of ice at $0^{\circ} C$ rests on the upper surface of the slab. In one hour $4.8\, kg$ of ice is melted. The thermal conductivity of the slab is .......... $J/m/s/^{\circ} C$ (Given latent heat of fusion of ice $= 3.36 \times 10^5\, J/kg$)

  • A

The temperature difference between two sides of an iron plate,$1.8 \ cm$ thick is $9^{\circ} C$. Heat is transmitted through the plate at a rate of $10 \ kcal / (s \cdot m^2)$ at steady state. The thermal conductivity of iron is:

The ratio of the diameters of two metallic rods of the same material is $2 : 1$ and their lengths are in the ratio $1 : 4$. If the temperature difference between their ends is equal,the rate of flow of heat in them will be in the ratio: (in $:1$)

Two sheets of thickness $d$ and $3d$ are touching each other. The temperature just outside the thinner sheet side is $A$,and on the side of the thicker sheet is $C$. The interface temperature is $B$. If $A, B$,and $C$ are in arithmetic progression,the ratio of the thermal conductivity of the thinner sheet to the thicker sheet is:
