Two plates of the same area are placed in contact. Their thicknesses as well as their thermal conductivities are in the ratio $2:3$. The outer surface of one plate is maintained at $10^{\circ} C$ and that of the other at $0^{\circ} C$. The temperature at the common surface is (in $^{\circ} C$)

The temperature difference between two sides of a metal plate,$3 \ cm$ thick,is $15^{\circ} C$. Heat is transmitted through the plate at the rate of $900 \ kcal$ per minute per $m^2$ at steady state. The thermal conductivity of the metal is:

Two sheets of thickness $d$ and $2d$ and the same area are touching each other on their faces. The temperatures $T_A$,$T_B$,and $T_C$ shown are in a geometric progression with a common ratio $r = 2$. Then,the ratio of the thermal conductivity of the thinner sheet to the thicker sheet is:

$A$ brass rod of length $2 \ m$ and radius $1 \ cm$ has one end maintained at $250 \ ^oC$. When steady state is reached, the rate of heat flow through any cross-section is $0.5 \ cal \ s^{-1}$. Find the temperature of the other end in $^oC$. (Thermal conductivity of brass $K = 0.26 \text{ cal s}^{-1} \text{ cm}^{-1} \text{ } ^\circ\text{C}^{-1}$)
