If the ratio of the coefficient of thermal conductivity of silver and copper is $10 : 9$,then the ratio of the lengths up to which wax will melt in the Ingen Hausz experiment will be:

The coefficient of thermal conductivity of a rod depends on its

Two layers of a wall,$A$ and $B$,are made of different materials. Both layers have the same thickness. For layer $A$,the thermal conductivity is $K_A = 3 K_B$. The total temperature difference across the wall is $20^{\circ}C$. Find the temperature difference across layer $A$ in $^{\circ}C$.

Two conducting cylinders of equal length but different radii are connected in series between two heat baths kept at temperatures $T_1 = 300 \ K$ and $T_2 = 100 \ K$,as shown in the figure. The radius of the bigger cylinder is twice that of the smaller one and the thermal conductivities of the materials of the smaller and the larger cylinders are $K_1$ and $K_2$ respectively. If the temperature at the junction of the two cylinders in the steady state is $200 \ K$,then $K_1 / K_2 = \dots$

Which of the following cylindrical rods will conduct the most heat when their ends are maintained at the same steady temperature difference?

Two rods (one semi-circular and one straight) are made of the same material and have the same cross-sectional area. They are joined as shown in the figure. Points $A$ and $B$ are maintained at different temperatures. The ratio of the heat current flowing through the semi-circular rod to that flowing through the straight rod in a given time is:
