Three rods $A, B,$ and $C$ of thermal conductivities $K, 2K$ and $4K$, cross-sectional areas $A, 2A$ and $2A$ and lengths $2l, l$ and $l$ respectively are connected as shown in the figure. If the ends of the rods are maintained at temperatures $100\,^oC$, $50\,^oC$, and $0\,^oC$ respectively, then the temperature $\theta$ of the junction is

A liquid in a beaker has temperature $\theta \left( t \right)$ at time $t$ and ${\theta _0}$ is temperature of surroundings, then according to Newton's law of cooling the correct graph between loge ${\log _e}(\theta  – {\theta _0})$ and $t$ is

Five wires each of cross-sectional area $A$ and length $l$ are combined as shown. The thermal conductivity of copper and steel are $k_1$ and $k_2$ respectively. The equivalent thermal resistance between $A$ and $C$ is

A wall has two layers $A$ and $B,$ each made of different material. Both the layers have the same thickness. The thermal conductivity for $A$ is twice that of $B$ and under steady condition, the temperature difference across the wall is $36\,^oC.$ The temperature difference across the layer $A$ is……. $^oC$

A cylindrical metallic rod, in thermal contact with two reservoirs of heat at its two ends, conducts an amount of heat $Q$ in time $t.$ The metallic rod is melted and the  material is formed into a rod of half the radius of the original rod. Amount of heat  conducted by the new rod, when placed in thermal contact with same two reservoirs in  time $t$ , is
