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 $^{\circ} C$)

$A$ slab consists of two parallel layers of two different materials of same thickness having thermal conductivities $K_1$ and $K_2$. The equivalent conductivity of the combination is

Five metal rods of the same cross-sectional area $A$ and same length $l$ are connected as shown in the figure. If the thermal conductivities of copper and steel are $K_1$ and $K_2$ respectively,then the resultant thermal resistance between $A$ and $C$ is:

Two rods of same length, radius and material transfer a given amount of heat in '$t$' seconds when they are joined as shown in fig $(1)$. But when they are joined as shown in fig $(2)$, then they will transfer the same amount of heat under the same conditions in time: (in $t$)

Two metal rods are arranged as shown in the figure. Their thermal conductivities are $K_1$ and $K_2$. What is their equivalent thermal conductivity?

The temperatures of the two outer surfaces of a composite slab,consisting of two materials having coefficients of thermal conductivity $K$ and $2K$ and thickness $x$ and $4x$,respectively,are $T_2$ and $T_1$ $(T_2 > T_1)$. The rate of heat transfer through the slab in a steady state is $\left( \frac{A(T_2 - T_1)K}{x} \right)f$,where $f$ is equal to:
