$A$ cylindrical rod with one end in a steam chamber and the other end in ice results in melting of $0.1 \ gm$ of ice per second. If the rod is replaced by another with half the length and double the radius of the first,and if the thermal conductivity of the material of the second rod is $\frac{1}{4}$ that of the first,the rate at which ice melts in $gm/sec$ will be:

  • A
    $3.2$
  • B
    $1.6$
  • C
    $0.2$
  • D
    $0.1$

$A$ slab consists of two identical plates of copper and brass. The free face of the brass is at $0^{\circ} C$ and that of copper at $100^{\circ} C$. If the thermal conductivities of brass and copper are in the ratio $1: 4$,then the temperature of the interface is (in $^{\circ} C$)

The end $A$ of a rod $AB$ of length $1\,m$ is maintained at $80\,^{\circ}C$ and the end $B$ at $0\,^{\circ}C$. The temperature at a distance of $60\,cm$ from the end $A$ is......... $^{\circ}C$

Two sheets of thickness $d$ and $3d$ are touching each other. The temperature just outside the thinner sheet side is $A$,and on the side of the thicker sheet is $C$. The interface temperature is $B$. If $A, B$,and $C$ are in arithmetic progression,the ratio of the thermal conductivity of the thinner sheet to the thicker sheet is:
