Two rods of same length, radius and material transfer a given amount of heat in '$t$' seconds when they are joined as shown in fig $(1)$. But when they are joined as shown in fig $(2)$, then they will transfer the same amount of heat under the same conditions in time: (in $t$)

$A$ slab consists of two parallel layers of copper and brass of equal thickness. The ratio of their thermal conductivities is $1:4$. If the temperature of the free side of the brass is $100^{\circ}C$ and that of the copper is $0^{\circ}C$,find the temperature of the interface in $^{\circ}C$.

$A$ wall has two layers $A$ and $B,$ each made of different material. Both the layers have the same thickness. The thermal conductivity for $A$ is twice that of $B$ and under steady condition,the temperature difference across the wall is $36\,^{\circ}C.$ The temperature difference across the layer $A$ is....... $^{\circ}C$

Two rods of the same length and material are joined end-to-end. They transfer a certain amount of heat in $8 \ s$. When they are joined in parallel,they transfer the same amount of heat under the same conditions in a time of: (in $s$)

Two rods having the same cross-sectional area are used to connect two reservoirs at temperatures $100\,^{\circ}C$ and $0\,^{\circ}C$ as shown. The temperature of the junction is $70\,^{\circ}C$. If the rods are now interchanged,the temperature of the junction will be ......... $^{\circ}C$.

Two rectangular blocks,having identical dimensions,can be arranged either in configuration $I$ or in configuration $II$ as shown in the figure. One of the blocks has thermal conductivity $k$ and the other $2k$. The temperature difference between the ends along the $x$-axis is the same in both the configurations. It takes $9 \ s$ to transport a certain amount of heat from the hot end to the cold end in the configuration $I$. The time to transport the same amount of heat in the configuration $II$ is: (in $s$)
