Three rods of Copper,Brass,and Steel are welded together to form a $Y$ shaped structure. The area of cross-section of each rod is $4 \ cm^2$. The end of the copper rod is maintained at $100^\circ C$,whereas the ends of the brass and steel rods are kept at $0^\circ C$. The lengths of the copper,brass,and steel rods are $46 \ cm$,$13 \ cm$,and $12 \ cm$ respectively. The rods are thermally insulated from the surroundings except at the ends. The thermal conductivities of copper,brass,and steel are $0.92$,$0.26$,and $0.12 \ CGS$ units respectively. The rate of heat flow through the copper rod is ....... $cal \ s^{-1}$.

$A$ hot black body emits energy at the rate of $16 \ J \ m^{-2} \ s^{-1}$ and its most intense radiation corresponds to $20,000 \ \mathring{A}$. When the temperature of this body is further increased and its most intense radiation corresponds to $10,000 \ \mathring{A}$,then the energy radiated in $J \ m^{-2} \ s^{-1}$ will be

Two bodies $A$ and $B$ have thermal emissivities of $0.01$ and $0.81$ respectively. The outer surface areas of the two bodies are the same. The two bodies emit total radiant power at the same rate. The wavelength ${\lambda _B}$ corresponding to maximum spectral radiancy in the radiation from $B$ is shifted from the wavelength corresponding to maximum spectral radiancy in the radiation from $A$ by $1.00\;\mu m$. If the temperature of $A$ is $5802\;K$,then:

One end of a uniform metal rod of length $100 \, cm$ is placed in ice and the other end is placed in boiling water. A point of the rod which is at a distance of $60 \, cm$ from the ice end is maintained at a constant temperature of $325^{\circ} C$. If $2 \, g$ of water is converted into steam per second, the mass of ice melted per second in steady state is (Latent heat of steam $= 6.75$ times latent heat of fusion of ice). (in $g$)
