A) 40 cm from 100°C end
B) 40 cm from 0°C end
C) 125 cm from 100°C end
D) 125 cm from 0°C end
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Rate of flow of heat is given by \[\frac{dQ}{dt}=\frac{\Delta \theta }{l/KA}\]also \[\frac{dQ}{dt}=L\frac{dm}{dt}\] (where L = Latent heat) Þ \[\frac{dm}{dt}=\frac{KA}{l}\,\left( \frac{\Delta \theta }{L} \right)\]. Let the desire point is at a distance x from water at 100°C. Q Rate of ice melting = Rate at which steam is being produced Þ \[{{\left( \frac{dm}{dt} \right)}_{Steam}}={{\left( \frac{dm}{dt} \right)}_{Ice}}\]Þ \[{{\left( \frac{\Delta \theta }{Ll} \right)}_{Steam}}={{\left( \frac{\Delta \theta }{Ll} \right)}_{Ice}}\] Þ \[\frac{(200-100)}{540\times x}=\frac{(200-0)}{80\,(3.1-x)}\]Þ x = 0.4 m = 40 cmYou need to login to perform this action.
