The figure shows three different arrangements of materials $1, 2$,and $3$ to form a wall. The thermal conductivities are $k_1 > k_2 > k_3$. The left side of the wall is $20\,^{\circ}\text{C}$ higher than the right side. The temperature difference $\Delta T$ across material $1$ has the following relation in the three cases:

Two identical metal rods are welded end-to-end as shown in figure $(1)$. It takes $4 \ min$ for $20 \ cal$ of heat to flow through them. If these rods are now welded side-by-side as shown in figure $(2)$,the time taken for the same amount of heat to flow through them is .......... $\min$.

Assertion: The equivalent thermal conductivity of two plates of the same thickness in contact is less than the smaller value of thermal conductivity.
Reason: For two plates of equal thickness in contact,the equivalent thermal conductivity is given by: $\frac{2}{K} = \frac{1}{K_1} + \frac{1}{K_2}$

$A$ copper rod of length $75 \ cm$ and an iron rod of length $125 \ cm$ are joined together end to end. Both are of circular cross-section with diameter $2 \ cm$. The free ends of the copper and iron are maintained at $100^{\circ} C$ and $0^{\circ} C$ respectively. The surfaces of the bars are insulated thermally. The temperature of the copper-iron junction is (Thermal conductivity of copper is $386.4 \ W/m-K$ and thermal conductivity of iron is $48.46 \ W/m-K$) (in $^{\circ} C$)

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?
