If heat conduction in Figure $1$ takes $12 \, sec$,how much time (in $sec$) will it take for the same amount of heat to be conducted in Figure $2$?

On a clear sunny day,an object at temperature $T$ is placed on the top of a high mountain. An identical object at the same temperature is placed at the foot of the mountain. If both the objects are exposed to sun-rays for two hours in an identical manner,the object at the top of the mountain will register a temperature

Three identical rods $AB$,$CD$ and $PQ$ are joined as shown. $P$ and $Q$ are midpoints of $AB$ and $CD$ respectively. Ends $A, B, C$ and $D$ are maintained at $0^{\circ} C, 100^{\circ} C, 30^{\circ} C$ and $60^{\circ} C$ respectively. The direction of heat flow in $PQ$ is

What are the modes of heat transfer due to a temperature difference?

The power radiated by a black body is $P$ and it radiates maximum energy around the wavelength $\lambda_0$. Now the temperature of the black body is changed so that it radiates maximum energy around wavelength $\left(\frac{\lambda_0}{2}\right)$. The power radiated by it will now increase by a factor of

Two bodies $A$ and $B$ have thermal emissivities of $0.01$ and $0.81$ respectively. The outer surface areas of the two bodies are the same. The two bodies emit total radiant power at the same rate. The wavelength ${\lambda _B}$ corresponding to maximum spectral radiancy in the radiation from $B$ is shifted from the wavelength corresponding to maximum spectral radiancy in the radiation from $A$ by $1.00\;\mu m$. If the temperature of $A$ is $5802\;K$,then:
