A long metallic bar is carrying heat from one of its ends to the other end under steady-state. The variation of temperature `theta` along the length x of the bar from its hot end is best described by which of the following figures?

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
In steady state, temperature decreases linearly along the bar. i.e `(dQ)/(dt)= -KA(d theta)/("dx")`
