Two materials having coefficients of thermal conductivity $3K$ and $K$ and thickness $d$ and $3d$,respectively,are joined to form a slab as shown in the figure. The temperatures of the outer surfaces are $\theta_2$ and $\theta_1$ respectively $(\theta_2 > \theta_1)$. The temperature at the interface is

  • A
    $\frac{\theta_2 + \theta_1}{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{\theta_1}{10} + \frac{9\theta_2}{10}$
  • C
    $\frac{\theta_1}{3} + \frac{2\theta_2}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{\theta_1}{6} + \frac{5\theta_2}{6}$

What is the temperature (in $^oC$) of the steel-copper junction in the steady state of the system shown in the figure? Length of the steel rod $= 15.0 \; cm,$ length of the copper rod $= 10.0 \; cm,$ temperature of the furnace $= 300^{\circ} C,$ temperature of the other end $= 0^{\circ} C.$ The area of cross-section of the steel rod is twice that of the copper rod. (Thermal conductivity of steel $= 50.2 \; J s^{-1} m^{-1} K^{-1};$ and of copper $= 385 \; J s^{-1} m^{-1} K^{-1}$)
