The ratio of thermal conductivity of two rods of different materials is $5 : 4$. If the two rods have the same area of cross-section and the same thermal resistance,what is the ratio of their lengths?

$A$ temperature difference of $120\,^oC$ is maintained between the two ends of a uniform rod $AB$ of length $2L$. Another bent rod $PQ$,of the same cross-section as $AB$ and length $\frac{3L}{2}$,is connected across $AB$ as shown in the figure. In the steady state,the temperature difference between $P$ and $Q$ will be close to .......... $^oC$.

Three conducting rods of the same material and cross-section are shown in the figure. The temperatures at $A$, $D$, and $C$ are maintained at $20 ^oC$, $90 ^oC$, and $0 ^oC$ respectively. If there is no heat flow in $AB$, find the ratio of the lengths of $BD$ and $BC$.

The temperatures of the two outer surfaces of a composite slab,consisting of two materials having coefficients of thermal conductivity $K$ and $2K$ and thickness $x$ and $4x$,respectively,are $T_2$ and $T_1$ $(T_2 > T_1)$. The rate of heat transfer through the slab in a steady state is $\left( \frac{A(T_2 - T_1)K}{x} \right)f$,where $f$ is equal to:

$A$ wall consists of two layers $A$ and $B$. Both layers have the same thickness but are made of different materials. The thermal conductivity of $A$ is twice that of $B$. In the steady state,the temperature difference across the two ends of the wall is $36^{\circ}C$. What is the temperature difference across the two ends of layer $A$ in $^{\circ}C$?

In a composite rod,when two rods of different lengths $l_1$ and $l_2$ and of the same cross-sectional area are joined end to end,if $K$ is the effective coefficient of thermal conductivity,then the value of $(l_1 + l_2)/K$ is
