A metal rod of length 2 m has cross sectional areas 2 A and A as shown in figure. The ends are maintained at temperatures 100° C and 70° C . The temperature at middle point C is

A

`80^(@)`C

B

`85^(@)`C

C

`90^(@)`C

D

`95^(@)`C

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Let T be temperature of middle point C and in series rate of heat flow is same
`implies K(2A)(100-T)=KA(T-70)`
`implies 200-2T = T-70 implies 3T=270impliesT=90^(@)C`
