Three rods of the same dimensions have thermal conductivities $3K, 2K$,and $K$. They are arranged as shown in the figure. The temperature of the junction in the steady state is:

  • A
    $\frac{200}{3}^{\circ} C$
  • B
    $\frac{100}{3}^{\circ} C$
  • C
    $75^{\circ} C$
  • D
    $\frac{50}{3}^{\circ} C$

Two sheets of thickness $d$ and $3d$ are touching each other. The temperature just outside the thinner sheet side is $A$,and on the side of the thicker sheet is $C$. The interface temperature is $B$. If $A, B$,and $C$ are in arithmetic progression,the ratio of the thermal conductivity of the thinner sheet to the thicker sheet is:

One end of a metal rod of length $1.0 \ m$ and area of cross-section $100 \ cm^2$ is maintained at $100^{\circ}C$. If the other end of the rod is maintained at $0^{\circ}C$,the quantity of heat transmitted through the rod per minute is (Coefficient of thermal conductivity of the material of the rod = $100 \ W/m-K$).

Three rods of identical cross-section and lengths are made of three different materials of thermal conductivity $K_{1}, K_{2},$ and $K_{3}$,respectively. They are joined together at their ends to make a long rod. One end of the long rod is maintained at $100^{\circ} C$ and the other at $0^{\circ} C$. If the joints of the rod are at $70^{\circ} C$ and $20^{\circ} C$ in steady state and there is no loss of energy from the surface of the rod,the correct relationship between $K_{1}, K_{2}$ and $K_{3}$ is:

$A$ rod of length $l$ with thermally insulated lateral surface is made of a material whose thermal conductivity $K$ varies as $K = C/T$,where $C$ is a constant. The ends are at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$. The heat current density is
