he ratio of the coefficient of thermal conductivity of two different materials is $5 : 3$ . If the thermal resistance of the rod and thickness of these materials is same, then the ratio of the length of these rods will be

A

$3:5$

B

$5:3$

C

$3:4$

D

$3 : 2$

Solution

(b) Thermal resistances are same

==> $\frac{{{l_1}}}{{{K_1}{A_1}}} = \frac{{{l_2}}}{{{K_2}{A_2}}}$ ==> $\frac{{{l_1}}}{{{K_1}}} = \frac{{{l_2}}}{{{K_2}}}$   $(\because {A_1} = {A_2})$

==> $\frac{{{l_1}}}{{{l_2}}} = \frac{{{K_1}}}{{{K_2}}} = \frac{5}{3}$
