Two metal rods 1 and 2 of the same length have same temperature difference between their ends. Their thermal conductivities are `K_1 and K_2` and cross-section areas `A_1 and A_2` respectively. What is the required condition for the same rate of heat conduction in them?

To determine the required condition for the same rate of heat conduction in two metal rods with different thermal conductivities and cross-sectional areas, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Formula for Heat Conduction**: The rate of heat conduction (Q/t) through a material is given by Fourier's law of heat conduction: \[ \frac{Q}{t} = \frac{K \cdot A \cdot (\Delta T)}{L} ...
