When the two ends of a metal rod are maintained at different temperatures and after some time every point of the rod attains a constant temperature,then:

  • A
    Heat is conducted through different points of the rod because the temperature does not increase.
  • B
    The rod is a poor conductor of heat.
  • C
    Heat is radiated from every point of the rod.
  • D
    Every point conducts the same amount of heat to its neighboring point at a constant rate.

Write a note on a double-walled flask or a thermos.

The radius of a conductor increases uniformly from the left end to the right end as shown in the figure. The material of the conductor is isotropic,and its curved surface is thermally isolated from the surroundings. Its ends are maintained at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ $(T_1 > T_2)$. If,in a steady state,the heat flow rate is equal to $H$,then which of the following graphs is correct?
