In the Ingen-Hauz's experiment,the wax melts up to lengths $10 \ cm$ and $25 \ cm$ on two identical rods of different materials. The ratio of thermal conductivities of the two materials is:

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:

The lengths of two rods made of the same metal and having the same area of cross-section are $0.6 \ m$ and $0.8 \ m$ respectively. The temperatures at the ends of the first rod are $90^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$,and those for the second rod are $150^{\circ}C$ and $110^{\circ}C$. For which rod will the rate of heat conduction be greater?

The two ends of a rod of length $x$ and uniform cross-sectional area $A$ are kept at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ respectively $(T_1 > T_2)$. If the rate of heat transfer through the rod in steady state is $Q/t$,then the coefficient of thermal conductivity $K$ is:

If the thermal conductivity of aluminum is $0.5 \ cal/cm \cdot s \cdot ^\circ C$,then the temperature gradient required to conduct $10 \ cal/s \cdot cm^2$ in the steady state is ...... $^\circ C/cm$.

Two plates of the same area are placed in contact. Their thicknesses as well as their thermal conductivities are in the ratio $2:3$. The outer surface of one plate is maintained at $10^{\circ} C$ and that of the other at $0^{\circ} C$. The temperature at the common surface is (in $^{\circ} C$)
