Question
A metallic rod of cross-sectional area 9.0 cm2 and length 0.54 m, with the surface insulated to prevent heat loss, has one end immersed in boiling water and the other in ice-water mixture. The heat conducted through the rod melts the ice at the rate of 1 gm for every 33 sec. The thermal conductivity of the rod is
- 330 Wm–1 K–1
- 60 Wm–1 K–1
- 600 Wm–1 K–1
- 33 Wm–1 K–1
The correct answer is: 60 Wm–1 K–1
