Seven rods A, B, C, D, E, F and G are joined as shown in figure. All the rods have equal cross-sectional area A and length l. The thermal conductivities of the rods are K_(A)=K_(C)=K_(0) , K_(B)=K_(D)=2K_(0) , K_(E)=3K_(0) , K_(F)=4K_(0) and K_(G)=5K_(0) . The rod E is kept at a constant temperature T_(1) and the rod G is kept at a constant temperature T_(2) (T_(2)gtT_(1)) . (a) Show that the rod F has a uniform temperature T=(T_(1)+2T_(2))//3 . (b) Find the rate of heat flowing from the source which maintains the temperature T_(2) .
