Heat current is maximum in which of the following (rods are of identical dimension)

A hollow sphere of inner radius $R$ and outer radius $2R$ is made of a material of thermal conductivity $K$. It is surrounded by another hollow sphere of inner radius $2R$ and outer radius $3R$ made of same material of thermal conductivity $K$. The inside of smaller sphere is maintained at $0^o C$ and the outside of bigger sphere at $100^o C$. The system is in steady state. The temperature of the interface will be ........ $^oC$

A copper pipe of length $10 \,m$ carries steam at temperature $110^{\circ} C$. The outer surface of the pipe is maintained at a temperature $10^{\circ} C$. The inner and outer radii of the pipe are $2 \,cm$ and $4 \,cm$, respectively. The thermal conductivity of copper is $0.38 kW / m /{ }^{\circ} C$. In the steady state, the rate at which heat flows radially outward through the pipe is closest to ............. $\,kW$

In the Arctic region, hemispherical houses called Igloos are made of ice. It is possible to maintain a temperature inside an Igloo as high as $20^{\circ} C$ because

A thin paper cup filled with water does not catch fire when placed over a flame. This is because

The figure shows a system of two concentric spheres of radii $r_1$ and $r_2$ and kept at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$, respectively. The radial rate of flow of heat in a substance between the two concentric spheres is proportional to
