The rate of heat conduction through a cylindrical rod is $Q_1$. The temperatures at the ends of the rod are $T_1$ and $T_2$. If all the dimensions of the rod are doubled while keeping the temperatures the same,the new rate of heat conduction is $Q_2$. Then:

Three conducting rods of the same material and cross-section are shown in the figure. The temperatures of $A$,$D$,and $C$ are maintained at $20^{\circ} C$,$90^{\circ} C$,and $0^{\circ} C$ respectively. If there is no heat flow in rod $AB$,the ratio of the lengths of $BD$ and $BC$ is:

Two plates of equal area are placed in contact with each other. Their thicknesses are $2.0 \ cm$ and $5.0 \ cm$. The temperature of the outer surface of the first plate is $-20^{\circ}C$ and the temperature of the outer surface of the second plate is $20^{\circ}C$. If the ratio of their thermal conductivities is $2:5$,find the temperature of the contact surface in $^{\circ}C$.

Two metal cubes $A$ and $B$ of the same size are arranged as shown in the figure. The ends of the combination are maintained at the indicated temperatures. The arrangement is thermally insulated. If the thermal conductivities of $A$ and $B$ are $300 \, W/m \, ^\circ C$ and $200 \, W/m \, ^\circ C$ respectively,find the temperature $t$ at the junction when the steady state is reached.

Which of the following factors affect the thermal conductivity of a rod?

Consider two rods of same length and different specific heats $(S_{1}, S_{2})$,conductivities $(K_{1}, K_{2})$ and area of cross-sections $(A_{1}, A_{2})$ and both having temperatures $T_{1}$ and $T_{2}$ at their ends. If the rate of loss of heat due to conduction is equal,then:
