$\frac{K_{1} A_{1}(300-T)}{L_{1}}=\frac{K_{2} A_{2}(T-0)}{L_{2}}$
where $1$ and $2$ refer to the steel and copper rod respectively. For
$A_{1}=2 A_{2}, L_{1}=15.0 cm$
$L_{2}=10.0 cm , K_{1}=50.2 J s ^{-1} m ^{-1}$$K ^{-1}, K_{2}=385 J$
$s ^{-1} m ^{-1} K ^{-1},$ we have
$\frac{50.2 \times 2(300-T)}{15}=\frac{385 T}{10}$
which gives $T=44.4^{\circ} C$
