A long metallic bar is carrying heat from one of its ends to the other end under steady-state. The variation of temperature $\theta$ along the length $x$ of the bar from its hot end is best described by which of the following figures?
$Assertion :$ Two thin blankets put together are warmer than a single blanket of double the thickness.
$Reason :$ Thickness increases because of air layer enclosed between the two blankets.
Three rods $AB, BC$ and $AC$ having thermal resistances of $10\, units, \,10 \,units$ and $20 \,units,$ respectively, are connected as shown in the figure. Ends $A$ and $C$ are maintained at constant temperatures of $100^o C$ and $0^o C,$ respectively. The rate at which the heat is crossing junction $B$ is ........ $ \mathrm{units}$
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 ........ $^oC$
Two identical plates of different metals are joined to form a single plate whose thickness is double the thickness of each plate. If the coefficients of conductivity of each plate are $2$ and $3$ respectively, then the conductivity of composite plate will be
