One end of a copper rod of uniform cross-section and of length 1.5 m is kept in contact with ice and the other end with water at 100°C. At which point along its length should a temperature of 200 °C be maintained so that in steady state the mass of ice melted be equal to that of the steam produced in the same interval of time ?Assume that the whole system is insulated from the surroundings.Latent heat of fusion of ice = 80cal g-1.Latent heatvaporizationof water = 540calg-1.

Answer:
I know but please give me brainliest points then I will tell you answer
Answer:
Suppose the temperature θ=200
o
C be maintained at a point on the rod at a distance x from the end at 0
o
C. As this temperature is higher, heat will flow from this point both toward ice and water ends.
Then, in an interval t, the amount of the heat flowing in ice (at 0
o
C) and in water (at 100
o
C are respectively.
