The length of a metal rod is 20 cm and its area of cross-section is \(4 \mathrm{~cm}^2\). If one end of the rod is kept at a temperature of \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) and the other end is kept in ice at \(0{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), then the mass of the ice melted in 7 minutes is
(Thermal conductivity of the metal \(=90 \mathrm{Wm}^{-1} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}\) and latent heat of fusion of ice \(=336 \times 10^3 \mathrm{~J} \mathrm{~kg}^{-1}\) )

  1. A 20 g
  2. B 67.5 g
  3. C 22.5 g
  4. D 45 g
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 22.5 g

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(Q = \frac{kA\Delta T t}{L}\) \(Q = \frac{90 \times (4 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~m}^2) \times 100 \mathrm{~K} \times (7 \times 60 \mathrm{~s})}{0.20 \mathrm{~m}}\) \(Q = \frac{90 \times 4 \times 10^{-4} \times 100 \times 420}{0.20} \mathrm{~J} = 7560 \mathrm{~J}\)…
