Two layers of a wall,$A$ and $B$,are made of different materials. Both layers have the same thickness. For layer $A$,the thermal conductivity is $K_A = 3 K_B$. The total temperature difference across the wall is $20^{\circ}C$. Find the temperature difference across layer $A$ in $^{\circ}C$.

$A$ wall is made of equally thick layers $P$ and $Q$ of different materials. The thermal conductivity of $Q$ is half of that of $P$. In the steady state,if the temperature difference across the wall is $24^{\circ} C$,then the temperature difference across the layer $P$ is ............... . (in $^{\circ} C$)

The water in a lake starts freezing at a temperature of $0^{\circ}C$. If it takes $7$ hours to form $1 \ cm$ of ice when the atmospheric temperature is $-10^{\circ}C$, how much additional time will it take to increase the thickness of the ice from $1 \ cm$ to $2 \ cm$ (in $hours$)?

$A$ cylindrical rod has temperatures $\theta_1$ and $\theta_2$ at its ends. The rate of heat flow is $Q$. All the linear dimensions of the rod are doubled while keeping the temperatures constant. The new rate of flow of heat is

One end of a copper rod of uniform cross-section and of length $3.1 \ m$ is kept in contact with ice at $0^{\circ}C$ and the other end with water at $100^{\circ}C$. At what point along its length should a temperature of $200^{\circ}C$ be maintained so that in steady state,the mass of ice melting is equal to the mass of steam produced in the same interval of time? Assume that the whole system is insulated from the surroundings. Latent heat of fusion of ice and vaporisation of water are $80 \ cal/g$ and $540 \ cal/g$ respectively.

Two metal cubes $A$ and $B$ of the same size are arranged as shown in the figure. The extreme ends of the combination are maintained at the indicated temperatures. The arrangement is thermally insulated. The coefficients of thermal conductivity of $A$ and $B$ are $300 \; W/m^{\circ}C$ and $200 \; W/m^{\circ}C$,respectively. After steady state is reached,the temperature of the interface will be ...... $^{\circ}C$.
