$A$ composite metal bar of uniform cross-section is made up of a length of $25 \ cm$ of copper,$10 \ cm$ of nickel,and $15 \ cm$ of aluminium. Each part is in perfect thermal contact with the adjoining part. The copper end of the composite rod is maintained at $100^{\circ}C$ and the aluminium end at $0^{\circ}C$. The whole rod is covered with an insulating belt so that no heat loss occurs at the sides. If $K_{\text{Cu}} = 2K_{\text{Al}}$ and $K_{\text{Al}} = 3K_{\text{Ni}}$,what will be the temperatures of the $\text{Cu-Ni}$ and $\text{Ni-Al}$ junctions,respectively?

  • A
    $23.33^{\circ}C$ and $83.33^{\circ}C$
  • B
    $83.33^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$
  • C
    $50^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$
  • D
    $30^{\circ}C$ and $50^{\circ}C$
