A metal rod $\mathrm{AB}$ of length $10 x$ has its one end $\mathrm{A}$ in ice at $0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and the other end $\mathrm{B}$ in water at $100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$. If a point $\mathrm{P}$ on the rod is maintained at $400^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$, then it is found that equal amounts of water and ice evaporate and melt per unit time. The latent heat of evaporation of water is $540 \ \mathrm{cal} / \mathrm{g}$ and latent heat of melting of ice is $80 \ \mathrm{cal} / \mathrm{g}$. If the point $\mathrm{P}$ is at a distance of $\lambda x$ from the ice end $\mathrm{A}$, find the value of $\lambda$.

Two different liquids of same mass are kept in two identical vessels, which are placed in a freezer that extracts heat from them at the same rate causing each liquid to transform into a solid. The schematic figure below shows the temperature $T$ versus time $t$ plot for the two materials. We denote the specific heat in the liquid states to be $C_{L 1}$ and $C_{L 2}$ for materials 1 and 2, respectively and latent heats of fusion $U_1$ and $U_2$, respectively. Choose the correct option.
