The temperature drop through each layer of a two-layer furnace wall is shown in the figure. Assume that the external temperatures $T_1$ and $T_3$ are maintained constant and $T_1 > T_3$. If the thicknesses of the layers $x_1$ and $x_2$ are the same,which of the following statements is correct?

The thermal conductivity of a material in $CGS$ system is $0.4$. In steady state,the rate of flow of heat is $10 \ cal/sec-cm^2$. Then the thermal gradient will be ....... $^oC/cm$.

$A$ metal rod $AB$ of length $10x$ has its one end $A$ in ice at $0^{\circ}C$ and the other end $B$ in water at $100^{\circ}C$. If a point $P$ on the rod is maintained at $400^{\circ}C$,then it is found that equal amounts of water and ice evaporate and melt per unit time. The latent heat of evaporation of water is $540 \ cal/g$ and latent heat of melting of ice is $80 \ cal/g$. If the point $P$ is at a distance of $\lambda x$ from the ice end $A$,find the value of $\lambda$. (Neglect any heat loss to the surrounding.)

Three metal rods made of copper, brass, and steel, each with a cross-sectional area of $4 \,cm^2$, are joined as shown in the figure. Their lengths are $46 \,cm, 13 \,cm$, and $12 \,cm$ respectively. Their coefficients of thermal conductivity are $0.92, 0.26$, and $0.12$ respectively, all in $CGS$ units. The rods are thermally insulated from the surroundings except at the ends. The rate of flow of heat through the copper rod, in $cal \,s^{-1}$, is:

If the ratio of the coefficient of thermal conductivity of silver and copper is $10 : 9$,then the ratio of the lengths up to which wax will melt in the Ingen Hausz experiment will be:

One end of a thermally insulated rod is kept at a temperature $T_1$ and the other at $T_2$. The rod is composed of two sections of length $l_1$ and $l_2$ and thermal conductivities $K_1$ and $K_2$ respectively. The temperature at the interface of the two sections is
