$A$ composite slab is prepared with two different materials $A$ and $B$. The relation between their coefficients of thermal conductivity and thickness is given as $K_A = \frac{K_B}{2}$ and $X_A = 2 X_B$, respectively. If the temperatures of the outer faces of $A$ and $B$ are $75^{\circ} C$ and $50^{\circ} C$ respectively, what will be the temperature of the common surface (in $^{\circ} C$)?

  • A
    $75$
  • B
    $50$
  • C
    $55$
  • D
    $125$
