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

  • A
    $1:1$
  • B
    $2:1$
  • C
    $1:4$
  • D
    $1:8$

If the radius and length of a copper rod are both doubled,the rate of flow of heat along the rod increases ....... times.

The lengths of two rods made of the same metal and having the same area of cross-section are $0.6 \ m$ and $0.8 \ m$ respectively. The temperatures at the ends of the first rod are $90^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$,and those for the second rod are $150^{\circ}C$ and $110^{\circ}C$. For which rod will the rate of heat conduction be greater?
