A slab of stone of area of 0.36 m20.36 \mathrm{~m}^2 and thickness 0.1 m0.1 \mathrm{~m} is exposed on the lower surface to steam at 100∘C100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}. A block of ice at 0∘C0^{\circ} \mathrm{C} rests on the upper surface of the slab. In one hour 4.8 kg4.8 \mathrm{~kg} of ice is melted. The thermal conductivity of slab is (Given latent heat of fusion of ice =3.36×105 J kg−1=3.36 \times 10^5 \mathrm{~J} \mathrm{~kg}^{-1} )

Options

  1. A1.24 J/m/s/∘C1.24 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} /{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}
  2. B1.29 J/m/s/∘C1.29 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} /{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}
  3. C2.05 J/m/s/∘C2.05 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} /{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}
  4. D1.02 J/m/s/∘C1.02 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} /{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}

Correct answer

A. 1.24 J/m/s/∘C1.24 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} /{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}

Step-by-step solution

\begin{aligned} \frac{\delta Q}{\delta t} & =\frac{K A}{L}\left(T_1-T_2\right) \\ Q & =\frac{K A}{L}\left(T_1-T_2\right) t \\ Q & =m L_f \\ \frac{K A}{L}\left(T_1-T_2\right) t & =m L_f \\ K & =\frac{m L_f L}{A\left(T_1-T_2\right) t} \\ K & =\frac{4.8 \times 3.36 \times 10^5 \times 0.1}{0.36 \times 100 \times 3600} \end{aligned}\begin{aligned} & =\frac{4.8 \times 3.36}{0.36 \times 36} \\ & =1.24 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} /{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \end{aligned}
