(D) $1$. Since the conductor is in a steady state,the current $I$ flowing through any cross-section must be the same. Therefore,$I_P = I_Q$.$2$. Current density $J = I/A$. Since the area $A_P > A_Q$,the current density $J_P $3$. The rate of heat generated per unit time is power $H = I^2 R$. For a small segment of length $dx$,$dR = \rho \frac{dx}{A}$. Since $A_P > A_Q$,the resistance $R_Q > R_P$. Therefore,$H_Q > H_P$.$4$. All statements are correct.
