Two vessels of different materials are similar in size in every respect. The same quantity of ice filled in them gets melted in 20 minutes and 30 minutes. The ratio of their thermal conductivities will be

A

`1.5`

B

1

C

`(2)/(3)`

D

4

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
As `(Q_(1)=Q_(2)`
`(k_(1)A(DeltaT))/(L)t_(1)=(k_(2)A(DeltaT))/(L)t_(2)`
`implies (k_(1))/(k_(2))=(t_(2))/t_(1)=(30)/(20)=1.5`
