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 $\frac{10}{3} \times 10^5\,J\cdot kg^{-1}$)

The thickness of a metallic plate is $0.4 \ cm$. The temperature difference between its two surfaces is $20^{\circ}C$. The quantity of heat flowing per second is $50 \ \text{calories}$ through an area of $5 \ cm^2$. In the $CGS$ system,the coefficient of thermal conductivity 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 containers have the same shape and wall thickness but are made of different materials. They are filled with the same amount of ice at $0^{\circ}C$. If the ice melts completely in $10$ minutes and $25$ minutes respectively,what is the ratio of the thermal conductivities of the materials of the containers?

Two rods $A$ and $B$ of the same cross-sectional area $A$ and length $l$ are connected in series between a source $(T_1 = 100^{\circ}C)$ and a sink $(T_2 = 0^{\circ}C)$ as shown in the figure. The rods are laterally insulated. If $G_A$ and $G_B$ are the temperature gradients across rod $A$ (thermal conductivity $3K$) and rod $B$ (thermal conductivity $K$),then:

Two walls of thickness $d_1$ and $d_2$ and thermal conductivities $k_1$ and $k_2$ are in contact. In the steady state,the temperatures of the outer surfaces are $T_1$ and $T_2$. Find the temperature of the common interface.
