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 $\lambda$.

A stationary object at $4°C$ and weighing $3.5\, kg$ falls from a height of $2000\, m$ on a snow mountain at $0°C$. If the temperature of the object just before hitting the snow is $0°C$ and the object comes to rest immediately $(g = 10\,m/{s^2})$ and (latent heat of ice$ = 3.5 \times {10^5}\,joule/\sec $), then the object will melt
