Heat is conducted across a composite block of two slabs of thickness $d$ and $2d$. Their thermal conductivities are $2k$ and $k$ respectively. All the heat entering the face $AB$ leaves from the face $CD$. The temperature in $^oC$ of the junction $EF$ of the two slabs is:

The rate of heat flow through the cross-section of the rod shown in the figure is ($T_2 > T_1$ and the thermal conductivity of the material of the rod is $K$).

$A$ rectangular slab consists of two cubes of copper and brass of equal sides having thermal conductivities in the ratio $4: 1$. If the free face of brass is at $0^{\circ} C$ and that of copper is at $100^{\circ} C$,then the temperature of their interface is (in $^{\circ} C$)

Two conducting cylinders of equal length but different radii are connected in series between two heat baths kept at temperatures $T_1 = 300 \ K$ and $T_2 = 100 \ K$,as shown in the figure. The radius of the bigger cylinder is twice that of the smaller one and the thermal conductivities of the materials of the smaller and the larger cylinders are $K_1$ and $K_2$ respectively. If the temperature at the junction of the two cylinders in the steady state is $200 \ K$,then $K_1 / K_2 = \dots$

$A$ slab consists of two parallel layers of copper and brass of the same thickness and having thermal conductivities in the ratio $1 : 4$. If the free face of brass is at $100^\circ C$ and that of copper at $0^\circ C$,the temperature of the interface is ........ $^\circ C$.
