$A$ rod $A$ of length $40\, cm$ has a temperature difference of $80^\circ C$ at its two ends. Another rod $B$ of length $60\, cm$ has a temperature difference of $90^\circ C$ at its ends. Both rods have the same area of cross-section. If the rate of flow of heat is the same for both,then the ratio of their thermal conductivities $(K_A : K_B)$ will be:

There are two identical vessels filled with equal amounts of ice. The vessels are made of different metals. If the ice melts in the two vessels in $20$ and $35$ minutes respectively,the ratio of the coefficients of thermal conductivity of the two metals is:

Two walls of thickness $d_1$ and $d_2$ and thermal conductivities $k_1$ and $k_2$ are in contact. In the steady state,the temperatures of the outer surfaces are $T_1$ and $T_2$. Find the temperature of the common interface.

The figure shows a system of two concentric spheres of radii $r_1$ and $r_2$ kept at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$,respectively. The radial rate of flow of heat in a substance between the two concentric spheres is proportional to

Same quantity of ice is filled in each of the two metal containers $P$ and $Q$ having the same size, shape, and wall thickness but made of different materials. The containers are kept in identical surroundings. The ice in $P$ melts completely in time $t_{1}$ whereas in $Q$ it takes a time $t_{2}$. The ratio of thermal conductivities of the materials of $P$ and $Q$ is

An ice box used for keeping eatables cold has a total wall area of $1\;m^2$ and a wall thickness of $5.0\;cm$. The thermal conductivity of the ice box material is $K = 0.01\;J/(m\cdot s\cdot ^\circ C)$. It is filled with ice at $0^\circ C$ along with eatables on a day when the temperature is $30^\circ C$. The latent heat of fusion of ice is $334 \times 10^3\;J/kg$. The amount of ice melted in one day is ........ $g$ $(1\;day = 86,400\;s)$.
