The area of the glass of a window of a room is $10\;m^2$ and thickness is $2\;mm$. The outer and inner temperatures are $40^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$ respectively. The thermal conductivity of glass in the $MKS$ system is $0.2\;W/(m\cdot K)$. The heat flowing into the room per second will be:

  • A
    $3 \times 10^4\;J/s$
  • B
    $2 \times 10^4\;J/s$
  • C
    $30\;J/s$
  • D
    $45\;J/s$

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 the thermal conductivities of rods $A$ and $B$ are $3K$ and $K$ respectively,and $T_A$ and $T_B$ are the temperature drops across rods $A$ and $B$,then:

One end of a copper rod of uniform cross-section and of length $3.1 \ m$ is kept in contact with ice at $0^{\circ}C$ and the other end with water at $100^{\circ}C$. At what point along its length should a temperature of $200^{\circ}C$ be maintained so that in steady state,the mass of ice melting is equal to the mass of steam produced in the same interval of time? Assume that the whole system is insulated from the surroundings. Latent heat of fusion of ice and vaporisation of water are $80 \ cal/g$ and $540 \ cal/g$ respectively.
