Three rods of same dimensions are arranged as shown in Fig. They have thermal conductivities `K_1`,`K_2` and `K_3`. The points P and Q are maintained at different temeperature for the heat to flow at the same rate along PRQ and PQ. Whi of the following options correct?

A

`K_(3)=(1)/(2)(K_(1)+K_(2))`

B

`K_(3)=K_(1)+K_(2)`

C

`K_(3)=(K_(1)K_(2))/(K_(1)+K_(2))`

D

`K_(3)=2(K_(1)+K_(2))`
