Two rods $A$ and $B$ of different materials are welded together as shown in the figure. Their thermal conductivities are $K_1$ and $K_2$. The thermal conductivity of the composite rod will be:

Four identical rods of the same material are joined end to end to form a square. If the temperature difference between the ends of a diagonal is $100^{\circ}C$,then the temperature difference between the ends of the other diagonal will be ........ $^{\circ}C$.

The temperatures of the two outer surfaces of a composite slab are $T_2$ and $T_1$ $(T_2 > T_1)$. The thermal conductivities of the materials are $K$ and $2K$,and their thicknesses are $x$ and $4x$,respectively. In the steady state,the rate of heat flow through the slab is given by $f \left( \frac{A(T_2 - T_1)K}{x} \right)$. Find the value of $f$.

Two rods $A$ and $B$ of different materials but same cross-section are joined as shown in the figure. The free end of $A$ is maintained at $100^{\circ}C$ and the free end of $B$ is maintained at $0^{\circ}C$. If $l_2 = 2l_1$,$K_1 = 2K_2$ and the rods are thermally insulated from the sides to prevent heat losses,then the temperature $\theta$ of the junction of the two rods is ........ $^{\circ}C$.

Two plates of equal area are placed in contact with each other. Their thicknesses are $2.0 \, cm$ and $5.0 \, cm$. The temperature of the outer surface of the first plate is $-20^{\circ}C$ and the temperature of the outer surface of the second plate is $20^{\circ}C$. If the plates are made of the same material,find the temperature of the contact surface in $^{\circ}C$.

$A$ square is formed by four identical rods. If the temperature difference across one diagonal is $100^{\circ}C$,what will be the temperature difference across the other diagonal?
