$A$ window used to thermally insulate a room from outside consists of two parallel glass sheets each of area $2.6 \,m^2$ and thickness $1 \,cm$ separated by $5 \,cm$ thick stagnant air. In the steady state, the room-glass interface is at $18^{\circ} C$ and the glass-outdoor interface is at $-2^{\circ} C$. If the thermal conductivities of glass and air are respectively $0.8 \,Wm^{-1} K^{-1}$ and $0.08 \,Wm^{-1} K^{-1}$, the rate of flow of heat through the window is (in $\,W$)

$A$ cylinder of thermal conductivity $k_1$ and radius $r$ is surrounded by a cylindrical shell of inner radius $r$,outer radius $2r$,and thermal conductivity $k_2$. Both cylinders have the same length and the temperature difference across their ends is the same. The equivalent thermal conductivity of the system is:

Five metal rods of the same cross-sectional area $A$ and same length $l$ are connected as shown in the figure. If the thermal conductivities of copper and steel are $K_1$ and $K_2$ respectively,then the resultant thermal resistance between $A$ and $C$ is:

$A$ copper rod $2 \ m$ long has a circular cross-section of radius $1 \ cm$. One end is kept at $100^{\circ}C$ and the other at $0^{\circ}C$,and the surface is covered by non-conducting material to prevent heat losses through the surface. The thermal resistance of the bar in Kelvin per Watt is (Take thermal conductivity $K = 401 \ W/m-K$ of copper):- (in $.9$)

The figure shows three different arrangements of materials $1, 2$,and $3$ to form a wall. The thermal conductivities are $k_1 > k_2 > k_3$. The left side of the wall is $20\,^{\circ}\text{C}$ higher than the right side. The temperature difference $\Delta T$ across material $1$ has the following relation in the three cases:
