The ends of two rods of different materials with their thermal conductivities,radii of cross-sections,and lengths all in the ratio $1:2$ are maintained at the same temperature difference. If the rate of flow of heat in the larger rod is $4 \; cal/sec$,the rate of flow of heat in the shorter rod in $cal/sec$ will be:

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $8$
  • D
    $16$

One end of a thermally insulated rod is kept at a temperature $T_1$ and the other at $T_2$. The rod is composed of two sections of lengths $l_1$ and $l_2$ and thermal conductivities $K_1$ and $K_2$ respectively. The temperature at the interface of the two sections is

Same quantity of ice is filled in each of the two metal containers $P$ and $Q$ having the same size,shape,and wall thickness but made of different materials. The containers are kept in identical surroundings. The ice in $P$ melts completely in time $t_{1}$ whereas in $Q$ it takes a time $t_{2}$. The ratio of thermal conductivities of the materials of $P$ and $Q$ is
