$A$ ring consisting of two parts $ADB$ and $ACB$ of same conductivity $k$ carries an amount of heat $H$. The $ADB$ part is now replaced with another metal keeping the temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ constant. The heat carried increases to $2H$. What should be the conductivity of the new $ADB$ part? Given $\frac{l_{ACB}}{l_{ADB}} = 3$.

  • A
    $\frac{7}{3} k$
  • B
    $2 k$
  • C
    $\frac{5}{2} k$
  • D
    $3 k$
