The two ends of a rod of length $x$ and uniform cross-sectional area $A$ are kept at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ respectively $(T_1 > T_2)$. If the rate of heat transfer through the rod in steady state is $Q/t$,then the coefficient of thermal conductivity $K$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{AQ}{tx(T_1-T_2)}$
  • B
    $\frac{xQ}{tA(T_1-T_2)}$
  • C
    $\frac{xAQ}{t(T_1-T_2)}$
  • D
    $\frac{Q}{txA(T_1-T_2)}$
