A partition wall has two layers A and B, in contact, each made of a different material. They have the same thickness but the thermal conductivity of layer A is twice that of layer B. If the steady state temperature difference across the wall is 60 K, then the corresponding difference across the layer A is

A wall has two layers A and B, each made of different materials. Both layers are of same thickness. But, the thermal conductivity of material A is twice that of B. If, in the steady state, the temperature difference across the wall is 24^(@)C , then the temperature difference across the layer B is :

A wall has two layers A and B, each made of different material. Both the layers have the same thickness. The thermal conductivity of the meterial of A is twice that of B .
