Problem

One end of a copper rod of length 1 m1\ \text{m} and cross-sectional area 4.0×10−4 m24.0\times10^{-4}\ \text{m}^2 is maintained at 100∘C100^\circ\text{C}. At the other end of the rod, ice is kept at 0∘C0^\circ\text{C}. Neglecting heat loss to the surroundings, find the mass of ice melted in 1 h1\ \text{h}. Given kCu=401 W m−1K−1k_{\text{Cu}}=401\ \text{W m}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1} and Lf=3.35×105 J kg−1L_f=3.35\times10^5\ \text{J kg}^{-1}.
