MCQ
A deep rectangular pond of surface area $A,$ containing water (denstity $=\rho,$ specific heat capactly $=s$ ), is located In a region where the outside air temperature is at a steady value of $-26^{\circ} {C}$. The thickness of the frozen ice layer In this pond, at a certaln Instant Is $x$.

Taking the thermal conductivity of Ice as ${K}$, and its specific latent heat of fusion as $L$, the rate of Increase of the thickness of ice layer, at this instant would be given by 

  • A
    $26 \mathrm{K} / \mathrm{\rho r}(\mathrm{L}-4 \mathrm{s})$
  • B
    $26 \mathrm{K} /\left(\rho \mathrm{x}^{2}-\mathrm{L}\right)$
  • $26 K /(\rho x L)$
  • D
    $26 \mathrm{K} / \mathrm{\rho r}(\mathrm{L}+4 \mathrm{s})$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$26 K /(\rho x L)$
c
$\mathrm{KA} \frac{[0-(-26)]}{\mathrm{x}} \mathrm{dt}=\mathrm{A}(\mathrm{dx}) \rho \mathrm{L} $

$\Rightarrow \frac{\mathrm{dx}}{\mathrm{dt}}=\frac{26 \mathrm{K}}{\rho \mathrm{Lx}}$
