If $4 \, kg$ of ice is inside a closed cubical thermocol box of side length $20 \, cm$ and wall thickness $4 \, cm$, then the mass of the ice remaining after $10 \, hours$ is nearly. (Given: Outside temperature $= 50^{\circ}C$, Thermal conductivity of thermocol $K = 0.01 \, Js^{-1}m^{-1\circ}C^{-1}$, Latent heat of fusion of ice $L = 335 \times 10^3 \, Jkg^{-1}$) (in $ \, kg$)

$A$ cylindrical copper rod of length $2 \,m$ and cross-sectional area $2 \,cm^2$ is insulated at its curved surface. One end of the rod is maintained in a steam chamber at $100^{\circ} C$ and the other is maintained in ice at $0^{\circ} C$. The thermal conductivity of copper is $386 \,Js^{-1} \,m^{-1} {}^{\circ} C^{-1}$. Find the temperature at a point which is at a distance of $120 \,cm$ from the colder end. (in $^{\circ} C$)

$A$ large cylindrical rod of length $L$ is made by joining two identical rods of copper and steel of length $(\frac{L}{2})$ each. The rods are completely insulated from the surroundings. If the free end of the copper rod is maintained at $100\,^oC$ and that of the steel rod at $0\,^oC$,then the temperature of the junction is........$^oC$ (Thermal conductivity of copper is $9$ times that of steel).
