Heat is conducted across a composite block of two slabs of thickness $d$ and $2d$. Their thermal conductivities are $2k$ and $k$ respectively. All the heat entering the face $AB$ leaves from the face $CD$. The temperature in $^oC$ of the junction $EF$ of the two slabs is:

  • A
    $20$
  • B
    $50$
  • C
    $60$
  • D
    $80$
