On a winter morning,a metal surface feels colder to the touch than a wooden surface because:

$A$ wall has two layers $A$ and $B$ made of different materials. The thickness of both the layers is the same. The thermal conductivities of $A$ and $B$ are $K_A$ and $K_B$ such that $K_A = 3K_B$. The temperature difference across the wall is $20^\circ C$. In thermal equilibrium:

$A$ heat flux of $4000 \, J/s$ passes through a rod of length $10 \, cm$ and cross-sectional area $100 \, cm^2$. The thermal conductivity of copper is $400 \, W/m^{\circ}C$. The ends of the rod must be maintained at a temperature difference of ....... $^{\circ}C$.

$A$ room is maintained at $20^{\circ}C$ by a heater of resistance $20 \ \Omega$ connected to $200 \ V$ mains. The temperature is uniform throughout the room and heat is transmitted through a glass window of area $1 \ m^2$ and thickness $0.2 \ cm$. What will be the temperature outside in $^{\circ}C$? Given that thermal conductivity $K = 0.2 \ J/(s \cdot m \cdot K)$ for glass and $J = 4.2 \ J/cal$.

Two conducting cylinders of equal length but different radii are connected in series between two heat baths kept at temperatures $T_1=300 \ K$ and $T_2=100 \ K$,as shown in the figure. The radius of the bigger cylinder is twice that of the smaller one and the thermal conductivities of the materials of the smaller and the larger cylinders are $K_1$ and $K_2$ respectively. If the temperature at the junction of the two cylinders in the steady state is $200 \ K$,then $K_1 / K_2 = . . . . . .$

The unit of thermal conductivity is
