Heat current is maximum in which of the following (rods are of identical dimension)?

Three rods made of the same material and having the same cross-sectional area but different lengths $10 \ cm$,$20 \ cm$,and $30 \ cm$ are joined as shown. The temperature of the joint is ....... $^oC$.

$A$ heat source at $T_1 = 10^3\, K$ is connected to another heat reservoir at $T_2 = 10^2\, K$ by a copper slab which is $1\, m$ thick. Given that the thermal conductivity of copper is $0.1\, W\, K^{-1}\, m^{-1}$,the energy flux through it in the steady state is ........... $W\, m^{-2}$.

Three identical heat conducting rods are connected in series as shown in the figure. The rods on the sides have thermal conductivity $2K$ while that in the middle has thermal conductivity $K$. The left end of the combination is maintained at temperature $3T$ and the right end at $T$. The rods are thermally insulated from outside. In steady state,the temperature at the left junction is $T_1$ and that at the right junction is $T_2$. The ratio $T_1 / T_2$ is

An ice cube of dimensions $60\,cm \times 50\,cm \times 20\,cm$ is placed in an insulation box of wall thickness $1\,cm$. The box keeping the ice cube at $0^{\circ}C$ temperature is brought to a room of temperature $40^{\circ}C$. The rate of melting of ice is approximately. (Latent heat of fusion of ice is $3.4 \times 10^{5}\,J\,kg^{-1}$ and thermal conductivity of insulation wall is $0.05\,W\,m^{-1\circ}C^{-1}$)

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 ...... $\text{gm}$.
