Find the equivalent thermal conductivity of the system.

Three rods of same dimensions have thermal conductivities $3K, 2K$ and $K$. They are arranged as shown in the figure. In the steady state,the temperature of the junction $P$ is:

Two identical long bars $A$ and $B$ made of different materials are coated with wax and have one end immersed in a hot oil bath. When the steady state is reached, the lengths for which the wax melts are $l_A$ and $l_B$. If $k_A$ and $k_B$ are the thermal conductivities of the materials, then:

The two ends of a rod of length $L$ and a uniform cross-sectional area $A$ are kept at two temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ $(T_1 > T_2)$. The rate of heat transfer,$\frac{dQ}{dt}$,through the rod in a steady state is given by:

Three rods each of length $l$ and cross-sectional area $A$ are joined in series between two heat reservoirs as shown in the figure. Their thermal conductivities are $2K$,$K$,and $\frac{K}{2}$,respectively. Assuming that the conductors are insulated from the surroundings,the temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ of the junctions in the steady-state condition are,respectively:

$A$ brass rod of length $2 \ m$ and radius $1 \ cm$ has one end maintained at $250 \ ^oC$. When steady state is reached, the rate of heat flow through any cross-section is $0.5 \ cal \ s^{-1}$. Find the temperature of the other end in $^oC$. (Thermal conductivity of brass $K = 0.26 \text{ cal s}^{-1} \text{ cm}^{-1} \text{ } ^\circ\text{C}^{-1}$)
