Question

A Cylindrical copper rod 37 cm long and 7.5 cm in diameter is placed upright on a hot plate held at a constant temperature of \(1120^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), as indicated in Figure 17–31. A small depression on top of the rod holds a \(25-\mathrm{g}\) ice cube at an initial temperature of

\(0.0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). How long does it take for the ice cube to melt? Assume there is no heat loss through the vertical surface of the rod, and that the thermal conductivity of copper is \(390 \mathrm{~W} /\left(\mathrm{m} \cdot \mathrm{C}^{\circ}\right)\)

Solution

Step 1 of 5)

The first step in solving 17 problem number 105 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: A Cylindrical copper rod 37 cm long and 7.5 cm in diameter is placed upright on a hot plate held at a constant temperature of \(1120^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), as indicated in Figure 17–31. A small depression on top of the rod holds a \(25-\mathrm{g}\) ice cube at an initial temperature of\(0.0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). How long does it take for the ice cube to melt? Assume there is no heat loss through the vertical surface of the rod, and that the thermal conductivity of copper is \(390 \mathrm{~W} /\left(\mathrm{m} \cdot \mathrm{C}^{\circ}\right)\)
From the textbook chapter Phases and Phase Changes you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
