The area of the glass of a window of a room is $10\;{m^2}$ and thickness $2mm$. The outer and inner temperature are ${40^o}C$ and ${20^o}C$ respectively. Thermal conductivity of glass in $MKS$ system is $0.2$. The heat flowing in the room per second will be
$3 \times {10^4}\;joules$
$2 \times {10^4}\;joules$
$30$ joules
$45$ joules
Mud houses are cooler in summer and warmer in winter because
One end of a thermally insulated rod is kept at a temperature $T_1$ and the other at $T_2$ . The rod is composed of two sections of length $l_1$ and $l_2$ and thermal conductivities $K_1$ and $K_2$ respectively. The temperature at the interface of the two section is
In the following figure, two insulating sheets with thermal resistances $R$ and $3R$ as shown in figure. The temperature $\theta$ is ...... $^oC$
In the Ingen Hauz’s experiment the wax melts up to lengths $10$ and $25 cm$ on two identical rods of different materials. The ratio of thermal conductivities of the two materials is
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 ............. $\,kW$
