Q 1 :    

Three conductors of same length having thermal conductivity k1,k2 and k3 are connected as shown in figure.

Area of cross sections of 1st and 2nd conductor are same and for 3rd conductor it is double of the 1st conductor. The temperatures are given in the figure. In steady state condition, the value of  is _______ °C.

(Given :k1=60 Js1 m1 K1, k2=120 Js1 m1 K1, k3=135 Js1 m1 K1)          [2025]

R1=2lk1A, R2=2lk2A, R3=2lk3A

(100θ)(1R1+1R2)=(θ0)R3

(100θ)(k1+k2)A2l=θk3Al

(100θ)(k1+k2=2θk3)

θ=100(k1+k2)k1+k2+k3=100×180450=40



Q 2 :    

Two cylindrical rods A and B made of different materials, are joined in a straight line. The ratio of lengths, radii and thermal conductivities of these rods are: LALB=12, rArB=2 and KAKB=12. The free ends of rods A and B maintained 400 K, 200 K, respectively. The temperature of rods interface is ________ K, when equilibrium is established.           [2025]
