The ratio of thermal conductivity of two rods of different materials is $4:3$. The two rods have same area of cross-section and same thermal resistance. The lengths of rods are in the ratio

The thermal conductivity of a wire is $1.7 \ W \ m^{-1} \ K^{-1}$ and that of cement is $2.9 \ W \ m^{-1} \ K^{-1}$. The thickness of the cement insulation is $..... \ cm$. Here,the thickness of the wire is $20 \ cm$.

$A$ wall is made of equally thick layers $P$ and $Q$ of different materials. The thermal conductivity of $Q$ is half of that of $P$. In the steady state,if the temperature difference across the wall is $24^{\circ} C$,then the temperature difference across the layer $P$ is ............... . (in $^{\circ} C$)

$A$ metallic rod of cross-sectional area $9.0 \, cm^2$ and length $0.54 \, m$,with the surface insulated to prevent heat loss,has one end immersed in boiling water and the other in an ice-water mixture. The heat conducted through the rod melts the ice at the rate of $1 \, g$ for every $33 \, s$. The thermal conductivity of the rod is ....... $W m^{-1} K^{-1}$.

$A$ wall consists of two layers $A$ and $B$. The two layers have the same thickness but are made of different materials. The thermal conductivity of $A$ is twice that of $B$. Under steady-state conditions,the temperature difference between the two ends is $36 ^\circ C$. The temperature difference across the two surfaces of $A$ is .......... $^\circ C$.

$A$ cylindrical rod has temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ at its ends. The rate of flow of heat is $Q_1 \ cal/sec$. If all the linear dimensions are doubled while keeping the temperatures constant,then the new rate of flow of heat $Q_2$ will be:
