A composite rod made of three rods of equal length and cross-section as shown in fig. The thermal conductivites of the materials of the rods are `K//2`, `5K` and `K` respectively. The end `A` and end `B` are at constant tempertures. All heat entering the face `A` goes out of the end `B` there being no loss of heat from the sides of the bar. The effective thermal conductivity of the bar is
