$A$ 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 ........ $^\circ C$.

$A$ cylindrical metallic rod in thermal contact with two reservoirs of heat at its two ends conducts an amount of heat $Q$ in time $t$. The metallic rod is melted and the material is formed into a rod of half the radius of the original rod. What is the amount of heat conducted by the new rod,when placed in thermal contact with the same two reservoirs in time $t$?

$A$ metallic rod of cross-sectional area $9.0 \, cm^2$ and length $0.54 \, m$,with the surface insulated to prevent heat loss,has one end immersed in boiling water and the other in an ice-water mixture. The heat conducted through the rod melts the ice at the rate of $1 \, g$ for every $33 \, s$. The thermal conductivity of the rod is ....... $W m^{-1} K^{-1}$.

Two vessels of different materials are similar in size in every respect. The same quantity of ice filled in them gets melted in $20 \text{ minutes}$ and $30 \text{ minutes}$ respectively. The ratio of their thermal conductivities will be

Two concentric spheres of radii $r_1$ and $r_2$ are maintained at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ respectively. The rate of radial heat flow between the two concentric spheres is proportional to:

Two rods are connected as shown. The rods are of the same length and same cross-sectional area. In the steady state,the temperature $(\theta)$ of the interface will be........ $^oC$
