Heat current is maximum in which of the following (rods are of identical dimension)?

Three conducting rods of the same material and cross-section are shown in the figure. The temperatures of $A$,$D$,and $C$ are maintained at $20^{\circ} C$,$90^{\circ} C$,and $0^{\circ} C$ respectively. If there is no heat flow in rod $AB$,the ratio of the lengths of $BD$ and $BC$ is:

Two ends of rods of length $L$ and radius $r$ of the same material are kept at the same temperature difference. Which of the following rods conducts the most heat?

The ratio of the diameters of two metallic rods of the same material is $2 : 1$ and their lengths are in the ratio $1 : 4$. If the temperature difference between their ends is equal,the rate of flow of heat in them will be in the ratio: (in $:1$)

Two plates of equal area are placed in contact. Their thicknesses are $2$ and $3$ units respectively. The temperature of the outer surface of the first plate is $-25^{\circ}C$ and the temperature of the outer surface of the second plate is $25^{\circ}C$. Find the temperature of the contact surface if: $(a)$ they are made of the same material,$(b)$ their thermal conductivities are in the ratio $2:3$.

The ends $Q$ and $R$ of two thin wires,$PQ$ and $RS$,are soldered (joined) together. Initially,each of the wires has a length of $1 \,m$ at $10^{\circ} C$. Now,the end $P$ is maintained at $10^{\circ} C$,while the end $S$ is heated and maintained at $400^{\circ} C$. The system is thermally insulated from its surroundings. If the thermal conductivity of wire $PQ$ is twice that of the wire $RS$ and the coefficient of linear thermal expansion of $PQ$ is $1.2 \times 10^{-5} \,K^{-1}$,the change in length of the wire $PQ$ is (in $\,mm$)
