Four identical conducting rods are joined as shown in the figure. Points $A$ and $D$ are maintained at temperatures of $200^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$ respectively. The temperature of junction $B$ will be ....... $^{\circ}C$.

In a composite rod,two rods of different lengths and the same cross-sectional area are joined end to end. If $K$ is the equivalent coefficient of thermal conductivity of the composite rod,then $\left( \frac{\ell_1 + \ell_2}{K} \right)$ is equal to:

$A$ cylinder of radius $R$ made of a material of thermal conductivity $k_1$ is surrounded by a cylindrical shell of inner radius $R$ and outer radius $2R$ made of a material of thermal conductivity $k_2$. The two ends of the combined system are maintained at different temperatures. There is no loss of heat from the cylindrical surface and the system is in steady state. The effective thermal conductivity of the system is

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

Three conducting rods of the same material and cross-section are shown in the figure. The temperatures at $A$, $D$, and $C$ are maintained at $20 ^oC$, $90 ^oC$, and $0 ^oC$ respectively. If there is no heat flow in $AB$, find the ratio of the lengths of $BD$ and $BC$.

Six identical conducting rods are joined as shown in the figure. Points $A$ and $D$ are maintained at temperatures of $200^oC$ and $20^oC$ respectively. The temperature of junction $B$ will be ....... $^oC$.
