Why does a metal bar appear hotter than a wooden bar at the same temperature? Equivalently,it also appears cooler than a wooden bar if they are both colder than room temperature.

Two rectangular blocks $A$ and $B$ of different metals have the same length and the same area of cross-section. They are kept in such a way that their cross-sectional areas touch each other. The temperature at one end of $A$ is $100^{\circ}C$ and that of $B$ at the other end is $0^{\circ}C$. If the ratio of their thermal conductivities is $1 : 3$,then under steady state,the temperature of the junction in contact will be ........ $^{\circ}C$.

Three conducting rods of the same material and cross-section are shown in the figure. The temperatures of $A$,$D$,and $C$ are maintained at $20^{\circ} C$,$90^{\circ} C$,and $0^{\circ} C$ respectively. If there is no heat flow in rod $AB$,the ratio of the lengths of $BD$ and $BC$ is:
