Two plates ofthe same area and the same ...

Two plates ofthe same area and the same thickness having thermal conductivities `k_(1)` and `k_(2)` are placed one on top of the other. Show that the thermal conductivity of the composite plate for conduction of heat is given by
`k=(2k_(1)k_(2))/((k_(1)+k_(2))`
