A tank of water has been outdoors in cold weather, and a slab of ice 5.7 cm thick has formed on its surface (see the figure). The air above the ice is at -12°C. Calculate the rate of formation of ice (in centimeters per hour) on the ice slab. Take the thermal conductivity of ice to be 0.0040 cal/s-cm-Co, its density to be 0.92 g/cm3, and its latent heat of fusion to be 333 kJ/kg. Assume no energy transfer through the tank walls or bottom.

The Kilauea volcano in Hawaii is the world’s most active, disgorging about 5×105 m3 of 1200ºC lava per day. What is the rate of heat transfer out of Earth by convection if this lava has a density of 2700 kg/m3 and eventually cools to 30ºC ? Assume that the specific heat of lava is the same asthat of granite.
Consider a thin round plate at 350K with a radius of 18 cm is placed on a very large and very thick table of conductivity k = 1.6 W/mK.

Bebang owns a 130-mm-thick concrete brick table top that has an area of 10,000,000 mm^2 and a 0.750 cm thick glass plate that has an area of 20,000 cm^2. Assuming the same temperature difference across each, what is the ratio of the rate of heat conduction through the plate with respect to the rate of heat conduction through the table top? Use Table 10.1 (given below) for the value of Thermal Conductivity.
