KillGorack / Physics 2010 / A silver bar of length 30 cm and cross-sectional area 1.0 cm2 is used to transfer heat from a 100°C reservoir to a 0°C block of ice. How much ice is melted per second? (For silver, k = 427 J/s×m×°C. For ice, Lf = 334 000 J/kg.)

The following physics responses are provided by a student and, as such, should be considered in that context. While every effort is made for accuracy, absolute correctness cannot be fully guaranteed.
