Six identical conducting rods are joined as shown. The ends $A$ and $D$ are maintained at $200\,^{\circ}C$ and $20\,^{\circ}C$ respectively. No heat is lost to the surroundings. The temperature of the junction $C$ will be ........ $^{\circ}C$.

Two rods whose lengths are $l_1$ and $l_2$ with thermal conductivity coefficients $k_1$ and $k_2$ are placed end to end. The thermal conductivity coefficient of a uniform rod of length $l_1+l_2$ whose thermal resistance is the same as that of the system of these two rods is

Two identical metal wires of thermal conductivities $K_{1}$ and $K_{2}$ respectively are connected in series. The effective thermal conductivity of the combination is

Two identical metal rods are welded end-to-end as shown in figure $(1)$. It takes $4 \ min$ for $20 \ cal$ of heat to flow through them. If these rods are now welded side-by-side as shown in figure $(2)$,the time taken for the same amount of heat to flow through them is .......... $\min$.

Two rods of same length and material transfer a given amount of heat in $12 \ s$,when they are joined end to end. But when they are joined along their lengths (parallel combination),then they will transfer the same amount of heat under the same conditions in time $t = \dots \ s$.

Two rods of same material have same length and area. The heat $\Delta Q$ flows through them for $12 \, \text{minutes}$ when they are joined in series. If now both the rods are joined in parallel,then the same amount of heat $\Delta Q$ will flow in ........ $\text{minutes}$.
