Two conducting rods $A$ and $B$ of same length and cross-sectional area are connected $(i)$ In series $(ii)$ In parallel as shown. In both combinations,a temperature difference of $100^{\circ}C$ is maintained. If the thermal conductivity of $A$ is $3K$ and that of $B$ is $K$,then the ratio of heat current flowing in the parallel combination to that flowing in the series combination is:

Two identical conducting rods are first connected independently in parallel to two vessels,one containing water at $100^oC$ and the other containing ice at $0^oC$. In the second case,the rods are joined end to end (in series) and connected to the same vessels. Let $q_1$ and $q_2$ $g/s$ be the rate of melting of ice in the two cases respectively. The ratio of $q_1/q_2$ is

Three rods of same dimensions are arranged as shown in the figure. They have thermal conductivities ${K_1}, {K_2}$ and ${K_3}$. The points $P$ and $Q$ are maintained at different temperatures. For the heat to flow at the same rate along the path $PRQ$ and the path $PQ$,which of the following options is correct?

The ratio of thermal conductivities of two materials is $1 : 2$. If the ratio of the lengths of the rods of these materials is $1 : 2$ and the ratio of their cross-sectional areas is $2 : 1$,then the ratio of their thermal resistances is:
