$A$ slab of stone of area $3600 \, cm^2$ and thickness $10 \, cm$ is exposed on the lower surface to steam at $100^{\circ} C$. $A$ block of ice at $0^{\circ} C$ rests on the upper surface of the slab. In one hour, $4.8 \, kg$ of ice is melted. The thermal conductivity of the stone in $J \, s^{-1} \, m^{-1} \, K^{-1}$ is (Latent heat of ice $= 3.36 \times 10^5 \, J/kg$)
