A composite metal bar of uniform section is made up of length $25 cm$ of copper, $10 cm$ of nickel and $15 cm$ of aluminium. Each part being in perfect thermal contact with the adjoining part. The copper end of the composite rod is maintained at ${100^o}C$ and the aluminium end at ${0^o}C$. The whole rod is covered with belt so that there is no heat loss occurs at the sides. If ${K_{{\rm{Cu}}}} = 2{K_{Al}}$ and ${K_{Al}} = 3{K_{{\rm{Ni}}}}$, then what will be the temperatures of $Cu - Ni$ and $Ni - Al$ junctions respectively
${23.33^o}C$ and $A$
${83.33^o}C$ and ${20^o}C$
${50^o}C$ and ${30^o}C$
${30^o}C$ and ${50^o}C$
There are two identical vessels filled with equal amounts of ice. The vessels are of different metals., If the ice melts in the two vessels in $20$ and $35$ minutes respectively, the ratio of the coefficients of thermal conductivity of the two metals is
Mud houses are cooler in summer and warmer in winter because
Two rods of same length and cross section are joined along the length. Thermal conductivities of first and second rod are ${K_1}\,\,{\rm{and}}\,\,{K_2}$. The temperature of the free ends of the first and second rods are maintained at ${\theta _1}\,\,{\rm{and }}{\theta _2}$ respectively. The temperature of the common junction is
Two different rods $A$ and $B$ are kept as shown in figure. The variation of temperature of different cross sections is plotted in a graph shown in figure. The ratio of thermal conductivities of $A$ and $B$ is
Two rods, one made of copper and the other steel of the same length and cross-sectional area are joined together. The thermal conductivity of copper is $385 \,Js ^{-1} m ^{-1} K ^{-1}$ and steel is $50 \,Js ^{-1} m ^{-1} K ^{-1}$. If the copper end is held at $100^{\circ} C$ and the steel end is held at $0^{\circ} C$, the junction temperature is ........... $C$ (Assuming no other heat losses)
