  • A
    $0.05 \ ^{\circ} C s cal^{-1}$
  • B
    $0.02 \ ^{\circ} C s cal^{-1}$
  • C
    $5 \ ^{\circ} C s cal^{-1}$
  • D
    $2 \ ^{\circ} C s cal^{-1}$

Four rods of identical cross-sectional area and made from the same metal form the sides of a square. The temperatures of two diagonally opposite points are $\theta$ and $\sqrt{2}\theta$ respectively in the steady state. Assuming that only heat conduction takes place,what will be the temperature difference between the other two points?
