$A$ thermocol box has a total wall area (including the lid) of $1.0 \,m^2$ and wall thickness of $3 \,cm$. It is filled with ice at $0^{\circ} C$. If the average temperature outside the box is $30^{\circ} C$ throughout the day, the amount of ice that melts in one day is (Given: $K_{\text{thermocol}} = 0.03 \,W/mK$, $L_{\text{fusion(ice)}} = 3.00 \times 10^5 \,J/kg$) (in $\,kg$)

Two walls of thicknesses $d_1$ and $d_2$ and thermal conductivities $k_1$ and $k_2$ are in contact. In the steady state,if the temperatures at the outer surfaces are $T_1$ and $T_2$,the temperature at the common wall is

Which of the following factors affect the thermal conductivity of a rod?

In steady state heat conduction,the equations that determine the heat current $j(r)$ [heat flowing per unit time per unit area] and temperature $T(r)$ in space are exactly the same as those governing the electric field $E(r)$ and electrostatic potential $V(r)$ with the equivalence given in the table below.

Heat flow	Electrostatics
$T(r)$	$V(r)$
$j(r)$	$E(r)$

We exploit this equivalence to predict the rate $\dot{Q}$ of total heat flowing by conduction from the surfaces of spheres of varying radii,all maintained at the same temperature. If $\dot{Q} \propto R^{n}$,where $R$ is the radius,then the value of $n$ is

$A$ long metallic bar is carrying heat from one of its ends to the other end under steady-state. The variation of temperature $\theta$ along the length $x$ of the bar from its hot end is best described by which of the following figures?

$A$ conducting rod of length $1 \,m$ has an area of cross-section $10^{-3} \,m^2$. One end is immersed in boiling water $(100^{\circ} C)$ and the other end in ice $(0^{\circ} C)$. If the coefficient of thermal conductivity of the rod is $96 \,cal/(s \cdot m \cdot ^{\circ}C)$ and the latent heat of fusion for ice is $8 \times 10^4 \,cal/kg$,then the amount of ice that will melt in one minute is:
