$A$ partition wall has two layers $A$ and $B$ in contact,each made of a different material. They have the same thickness but the thermal conductivity of layer $A$ is twice that of layer $B$. If the steady state temperature difference across the wall is $60 \ K$,then the corresponding difference across the layer $A$ is ....... $K$.

  • A
    $10$
  • B

Two cylinders $P$ and $Q$ have the same length and diameter and are made of different materials having thermal conductivities in the ratio $2 : 3$. These two cylinders are combined to make a single cylinder. One end of $P$ is kept at $100^{\circ}C$ and the other end of $Q$ is kept at $0^{\circ}C$. The temperature at the interface of $P$ and $Q$ is ...... $^{\circ}C$.

In a composite rod,when two rods of different lengths and of the same area are joined end to end,then if $K$ is the effective coefficient of thermal conductivity,$\frac{{\ell _1} + {\ell _2}}{K}$ is equal to

$A$ ring consisting of two parts $ADB$ and $ACB$ of same conductivity $k$ carries an amount of heat $H$. The $ADB$ part is now replaced with another metal keeping the temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ constant. The heat carried increases to $2H$. What should be the conductivity of the new $ADB$ part? Given $\frac{l_{ACB}}{l_{ADB}} = 3$.
