Two identical containers are filled with the same amount of ice. The containers are made of different metals. If the ice in both containers melts in $20$ minutes and $35$ minutes respectively,find the ratio of their thermal conductivities.

Find the equivalent thermal conductivity of the system.

$A$ metal rod of length $2\, m$ has cross-sectional areas $2A$ and $A$ as shown in the figure. The two ends are maintained at temperatures $100\,^{\circ}C$ and $70\,^{\circ}C$. The temperature of the junction point $C$ is ........ $^{\circ}C$.

The coefficient of thermal conductivity of copper is $9$ times that of steel. In the composite cylindrical bar shown in the figure,what will be the temperature at the junction of copper and steel (in $^{\circ} C$)?

$A$ metal cooking pot has a base area of $0.2 \,m^2$ and a thickness of $2.0 \,cm$. It boils water at a rate of $3.0 \,kg/min$ when placed on a hot plate. What is the temperature of the part of the hot plate in contact with the pot (in $^{\circ} C$)? [Thermal conductivity of metal is $120 \,J s^{-1} m^{-1} K^{-1}$, latent heat of vaporisation of water is $2 \times 10^6 \,J/kg$]

Two sheets of thickness $d$ and $3d$ are touching each other. The temperature just outside the thinner sheet side is $A$,and on the side of the thicker sheet is $C$. The interface temperature is $B$. If $A, B$,and $C$ are in arithmetic progression,the ratio of the thermal conductivity of the thinner sheet to the thicker sheet is:
