According to the experiment of Ingen Hausz, the relation between the thermal conductivity $K$ of a metal rod and the length $l$ of the rod up to which the wax melts is:

Two slabs have thicknesses $d_{1}$ and $d_{2}$. Their thermal conductivities are $K_{1}$ and $K_{2}$ respectively. They are in series. The free ends of the combination of these two slabs are kept at temperatures $\theta_{1}$ and $\theta_{2}$. Assume $\theta_{1} > \theta_{2}$. The temperature $\theta$ of their common junction is

Two rods $A$ and $B$ of the same cross-sectional area $A$ and length $l$ are connected in series between a source $(T_1 = 100^{\circ}C)$ and a sink $(T_2 = 0^{\circ}C)$ as shown in the figure. The rods are laterally insulated. If $G_A$ and $G_B$ are the temperature gradients across rod $A$ (thermal conductivity $3K$) and rod $B$ (thermal conductivity $K$),then:

Two rectangular blocks $A$ and $B$ of different metals have the same length and the same area of cross-section. They are kept in such a way that their cross-sectional areas touch each other. The temperature at one end of $A$ is $100^{\circ}C$ and that of $B$ at the other end is $0^{\circ}C$. If the ratio of their thermal conductivities is $1 : 3$,then under steady state,the temperature of the junction in contact will be ........ $^{\circ}C$.

$A$ cylindrical rod has temperatures $\theta_1$ and $\theta_2$ at its ends. The rate of heat flow is $Q$. All the linear dimensions of the rod are doubled while keeping the temperatures constant. The new rate of flow of heat is

Three metal rods made of copper, brass, and steel, each with a cross-sectional area of $4 \,cm^2$, are joined as shown in the figure. Their lengths are $46 \,cm, 13 \,cm$, and $12 \,cm$ respectively. Their coefficients of thermal conductivity are $0.92, 0.26$, and $0.12$ respectively, all in $CGS$ units. The rods are thermally insulated from the surroundings except at the ends. The rate of flow of heat through the copper rod, in $cal \,s^{-1}$, is:
