$A$ rod of length $l$ with thermally insulated lateral surface is made of a material whose thermal conductivity $K$ varies as $K = C/T$,where $C$ is a constant. The ends are at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$. The heat current density is

  • A
    $C \ln \left( \frac{T_2}{T_1} \right) / l$
  • B
    $\frac{C}{l} \ln \left( \frac{T_2}{T_1} \right)$
  • C
    $\frac{C}{l} \ln (T_1 T_2)$
  • D
    $Cl \ln \left( \frac{T_2}{T_1} \right)$

Heat is flowing through two cylindrical rods of the same material. The diameters of the rods are in the ratio $1:2$ and their lengths are in the ratio $2:1$. If the temperature difference between their ends is the same,then the ratio of the amounts of heat conducted through per unit time will be

$A$ copper rod and a steel rod of equal cross-sections and lengths $L$ are joined side by side and connected between two heat baths as shown in the figure. If heat flows through them from $x = 0$ to $x = 2L$ at a steady rate and thermal conductivities of the metals are $K_{Cu}$ and $K_{Steel}$ $(K_{Cu} > K_{Steel})$,then the temperature varies as (convection and radiation are negligible):
