The thermal conductivity of a material in $CGS$ system is $0.4$. In steady state,the rate of flow of heat is $10 \ cal/sec-cm^2$. Then the thermal gradient will be ....... $^oC/cm$.

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 the thermal conductivities of rods $A$ and $B$ are $3K$ and $K$ respectively,and $T_A$ and $T_B$ are the temperature drops across rods $A$ and $B$,then:

Wires $A$ and $B$ have identical lengths and have circular cross-sections. The radius of $A$ is twice the radius of $B$,$i.e.$,${r_A} = 2{r_B}$. For a given temperature difference between the two ends,both wires conduct heat at the same rate. The relation between the thermal conductivities is given by:

$A$ rod of length $L$ with sides fully insulated is made of a material whose thermal conductivity varies with temperature $T$ as $K = \frac{\alpha}{T}$,where $\alpha$ is a constant. The ends of the rod are kept at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$. The temperature $T$ at a distance $x$ from the end kept at $T_1$ is:

Three identical heat conducting rods are connected in series as shown in the figure. The rods on the sides have thermal conductivity $2K$ while that in the middle has thermal conductivity $K$. The left end of the combination is maintained at temperature $3T$ and the right end at $T$. The rods are thermally insulated from outside. In steady state,the temperature at the left junction is $T_1$ and that at the right junction is $T_2$. The ratio $T_1 / T_2$ is

The coefficients of thermal conductivity of copper,mercury,and glass are respectively $K_c, K_m$,and $K_g$ such that $K_c > K_m > K_g$. If the same quantity of heat is to flow per second per unit area of each and corresponding temperature gradients are $X_c, X_m$,and $X_g$,then:
