Two slabs are of the thicknesses d1 and d2. Their thermal conductivities are K1 and K2 respectively. They are in series. The free ends of the combination of these two slabs are kept at temperatures θ1 and θ2. Assume θ1 > θ2. The temperature θ of their common junction is
Hot water cools from 60°C to 50°C in the first 10 min and to 42°C in the next 10 min. Then the temperature of the surroundings is
20°C
30°C
15°C
10°C
A perfect gas at 27°C is heated at constant pressure so as to double its volume. The increase in temperature of the gas will be
600°C
327°C
54°C
300°C
Three identical rods A, B and C are placed end to end. A temperature difference is maintained between the free ends of A and C. The thermal conductivity of B is thrice that of C and half ofthat of A. The effective thermal conductivity of the system will be (KA is the thermal conductivity of rod A)
3 KA
2 KA
A.
Given, KB = KA/2
and KB = 3KC
∴ KC = KA/6
Rods are in series form so
