For cooking the food,which of the following type of utensil is most suitable?

The two opposite faces of a cubical piece of iron (thermal conductivity $= 0.2 \text{ CGS units}$) are at $100^{\circ}C$ and $0^{\circ}C$ in ice. If the area of a surface is $4 \text{ cm}^2$,then the mass of ice melted in $10 \text{ minutes}$ will be ...... $\text{gm}$.

An aluminium rod of length $1 \,m$ and a steel rod of length $2 \,m$, both having the same cross-sectional area, are soldered together end-to-end. The thermal conductivity of the aluminium rod and the steel rod is $200 \,Js^{-1} \,m^{-1} \,K^{-1}$ and $50 \,Js^{-1} \,m^{-1} \,K^{-1}$ respectively. The temperatures of the free ends are maintained at $300 \,K$ and $500 \,K$. What is the temperature of the junction (in $\,K$)?

Two identical rods of copper and iron are coated with wax uniformly. When one end of each is kept at the temperature of boiling water,the lengths up to which wax melts are $8.4 \ cm$ and $4.2 \ cm$ respectively. If the thermal conductivity of copper is $0.92$,then the thermal conductivity of iron is:

$A$ copper pipe of length $10 \,m$ carries steam at temperature $110^{\circ} C$. The outer surface of the pipe is maintained at a temperature $10^{\circ} C$. The inner and outer radii of the pipe are $2 \,cm$ and $4 \,cm$,respectively. The thermal conductivity of copper is $0.38 \,kW / m /^{\circ} C$. In the steady state,the rate at which heat flows radially outward through the pipe is closest to ............. $\,kW$.

The ratio of the diameters of two metallic rods of the same material is $2 : 1$ and their lengths are in the ratio $1 : 4$. If the temperature difference between their ends is equal,the rate of flow of heat in them will be in the ratio: (in $:1$)
