Halliday, Resnick & Walker β€” Temperature, Heat, and the First Law of Thermodynamics: Problem 65

Ice has formed on a shallow pond, and a steady state has been reached, with the air above the ice at \(-5.0^\circ\text{C}\) and the bottom of the pond at \(4.0^\circ\text{C}\). If the total depth of ice + water is \(1.4\text{ m}\), how thick is the ice? (Assume that the thermal conductivities of ice and water are \(0.40\) and \(0.12\text{ cal/m}\cdot\text{C}^\circ\cdot\text{s}\), respectively.)
