The figure shows a thick spherical shell made of a material with electrical conductivity $\sigma$. It has inner and outer radii of $10\ cm$ and $20\ cm$ respectively and is filled with ice inside. Its inner and outer surfaces are kept at different potentials by a battery with internal resistance $r = \frac{2}{\pi}\ \Omega$ and electromotive force $\epsilon = 5\ V$. Find the value of $\sigma$ for which the ice melts at the maximum possible rate,given that $25\%$ of the heat generated by the shell due to Joule heating is used to melt the ice.
