If the ratio of coefficient of thermal conductivity of silver and copper is $10 : 9$ , then the ratio of the lengths upto which wax will melt in Ingen Hausz experiment will be

A

$6:10$

B

$\sqrt {10} :3$

C

$100 : 81$

D

$81 : 100$

Solution

(b) ${K_1}:{K_2} = l_1^2:l_2^2 \Rightarrow \frac{{{l_1}}}{{{l_2}}} = \sqrt {\frac{{{K_1}}}{{{K_2}}}} = \sqrt {\frac{{10}}{9}} = \frac{{\sqrt {10} }}{3}$
