The length of the two rods made up of the same metal and having the same area of cross-section are 0.6 m and 0.8 m respectively. The temperature between the ends of first rod is 90º C and 60° C and that for the other rod is 150°C and 110° C. For which rod the rate of conduction will be greater ?

A rod is of length 30m, insulated at both ends. The temperature of the rod is given by T = x (30-x) where x is length. Prove that the rate of change of temperature at the mid point of the rod vanishes.

The temperature gradient in a rod of 0.5 m long is 80° C/m. IF the temperature of hotter end of the rod is 30°C, then the temperature of the cooler end is

Figure shows a copper rod joined to a steel rod. The rods have equal length and and the equal cross sectional area. The free end of the copper rod is kept at 0^(@)C and that of the steel rod is kept at 100^(@)C . Find the temperature at the junction of the rods. conductivity of copper =390Wm^(-1)C^(-1) and that of steel =46Wm^(-1)C^(-1) .

The lengths and radii of two rods made of same material are in the ratios 1 : 2 and 2 : 3 respectively. If the temperature difference between the ends for the two rods be the same, then in the steady state, the amount of heat flowing per second through them will be in the ratio

Asseration : There is no effecta on other end when one end of the rod is only heated. Reason: Heat always flows from a region o lower temperature to higher temperature of the rod.
