Three identical rods $AB$, $CD$ and $PQ$ are joined as shown. $P$ and $Q$ are mid points of $AB$ and $CD$ respectively. Ends $A, B, C$ and $D$ are maintained at $0^o C, 100^o C, 30^o C$ and $60^o C$ respectively. The direction of heat flow in $PQ$ is
As per the given figure, two plates $A$ and $B$ of thermal conductivity $K$ and $2 K$ are joined together to form a compound plate. The thickness of plates are $4.0 \,cm$ and $2.5 \,cm$ respectively and the area of cross-section is $120 \,cm ^{2}$ for each plate. The equivalent thermal conductivity of the compound plate is $\left(1+\frac{5}{\alpha}\right) K$, then the value of $\alpha$ will be_______
A piece of glass is heated to a high temperature and then allowed to cool. If it cracks, a probable reason for this is the following property of glass
Two rods of same length and cross section are joined along the length. Thermal conductivities of first and second rod are ${K_1}\,\,{\rm{and}}\,\,{K_2}$. The temperature of the free ends of the first and second rods are maintained at ${\theta _1}\,\,{\rm{and }}{\theta _2}$ respectively. The temperature of the common junction is
