$A$ rectangular slab consists of two cubes of copper and brass of equal sides having thermal conductivities in the ratio $4: 1$. If the free face of brass is at $0^{\circ} C$ and that of copper is at $100^{\circ} C$,then the temperature of their interface is (in $^{\circ} C$)

The two ends of a rod of length $x$ and uniform cross-sectional area $A$ are kept at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ respectively $(T_1 > T_2)$. If the rate of heat transfer through the rod in steady state is $Q/t$,then the coefficient of thermal conductivity $K$ is:

Three rods of identical cross-sectional area and made from the same metal form the sides of an isosceles triangle $ABC$,right-angled at $B$. The points $A$ and $B$ are maintained at temperatures $T$ and $\sqrt{2}T$ respectively. In the steady state,the temperature of point $C$ is $T_C$. Assuming that only heat conduction takes place,$\frac{T_C}{T}$ is equal to

Two rods,one made of copper and the other made of steel,of the same length and same cross-sectional area,are joined together. The thermal conductivities of copper and steel are $385 \, W \, m^{-1} \, K^{-1}$ and $50 \, W \, m^{-1} \, K^{-1}$ respectively. The free ends of copper and steel are held at $100^{\circ} \, C$ and $0^{\circ} \, C$ respectively. The temperature at the junction is nearly $.......^{\circ} \, C$.
