Six wires,each of cross-sectional area $A$ and length $l$,are combined as shown in the figure. The thermal conductivities of copper and iron are $K_1$ and $K_2$ respectively. The equivalent thermal resistance between points $A$ and $C$ is:

$A$ composite block is made of slabs $A, B, C, D$ and $E$ of different thermal conductivities (given in terms of a constant $K$) and sizes (given in terms of length,$L$) as shown in the figure. All slabs are of same width. Heat $Q$ flows only from left to right through the blocks. Then in steady state:
$(A)$ Heat flow through $A$ and $E$ slabs are same.
$(B)$ Heat flow through slab $E$ is maximum.
$(C)$ Temperature difference across slab $E$ is smallest.
$(D)$ Heat flow through $C =$ Heat flow through $B +$ Heat flow through $D$.

Consider a compound slab consisting of two different materials having equal thickness and thermal conductivities $K$ and $2K$ respectively. The equivalent thermal conductivity of the slab is

Two slabs $A$ and $B$ of equal surface area are placed one over the other such that their surfaces are completely in contact. The thickness of slab $A$ is twice that of $B$. The coefficient of thermal conductivity of slab $A$ is twice that of $B$. The first surface of slab $A$ is maintained at $100^{\circ} C$, while the second surface of slab $B$ is maintained at $25^{\circ} C$. The temperature at the contact of their surfaces is (in $^{\circ} C$)
