$A$ slab consists of two parallel layers of copper and brass of equal thickness. The ratio of their thermal conductivities is $1:4$. If the temperature of the free side of the brass is $100^{\circ}C$ and that of the copper is $0^{\circ}C$,find the temperature of the interface in $^{\circ}C$.

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

$A$ metallic prong consists of $4$ rods made of the same material,with the same cross-sections and the same lengths as shown below. The three forked ends are kept at $100^{\circ} C$ and the handle end is at $0^{\circ} C$. The temperature of the junction is ............. $^{\circ} C$.

$A$ composite metal bar of uniform cross-section is made up of a length of $25 \ cm$ of copper,$10 \ cm$ of nickel,and $15 \ cm$ of aluminium. Each part is in perfect thermal contact with the adjoining part. The copper end of the composite rod is maintained at $100^{\circ}C$ and the aluminium end at $0^{\circ}C$. The whole rod is covered with an insulating belt so that no heat loss occurs at the sides. If $K_{\text{Cu}} = 2K_{\text{Al}}$ and $K_{\text{Al}} = 3K_{\text{Ni}}$,what will be the temperatures of the $\text{Cu-Ni}$ and $\text{Ni-Al}$ junctions,respectively?

Four rods of identical cross-sectional area and made from the same metal form the sides of a square. The temperatures of two diagonally opposite points are $\theta$ and $\sqrt{2}\theta$ respectively in the steady state. Assuming that only heat conduction takes place,what will be the temperature difference between the other two points?
