Two cylinders $P$ and $Q$ have the same length and diameter and are made of different materials having thermal conductivities in the ratio $2 : 3$. These two cylinders are combined to make a single cylinder. One end of $P$ is kept at $100^{\circ}C$ and the other end of $Q$ is kept at $0^{\circ}C$. The temperature at the interface of $P$ and $Q$ is ...... $^{\circ}C$.

Four identical rods of the same material are joined end to end to form a square. If the temperature difference between the ends of a diagonal is $100^{\circ}C$,then the temperature difference between the ends of the other diagonal will be ........ $^{\circ}C$.

The temperatures of the two outer surfaces of a composite slab are $T_2$ and $T_1$ $(T_2 > T_1)$. The thermal conductivities of the materials are $K$ and $2K$,and their thicknesses are $x$ and $4x$,respectively. In the steady state,the rate of heat flow through the slab is given by $f \left( \frac{A(T_2 - T_1)K}{x} \right)$. Find the value of $f$.

Two rods of same material have same length and area. The heat $\Delta Q$ flows through them for $12 \, \text{minutes}$ when they are joined in series. If now both the rods are joined in parallel,then the same amount of heat $\Delta Q$ will flow in ........ $\text{minutes}$.

Two rods of cross-sectional area $A$ and $2A$ and equal length having thermal conductivities $2K$ and $3K$ are joined in parallel. The equivalent thermal conductivity of their combination will be:

$A$ copper rod of length $18 \ cm$ and a steel rod of length $6 \ cm$ are joined together to form a composite rod of uniform cross-section. The temperature of the free end of the copper rod is $100 \ ^\circ C$ and the temperature of the free end of the steel rod is $0 \ ^\circ C$. What is the temperature at the junction in $^\circ C$? (Thermal conductivity of copper is $9$ times that of steel. The rod is in a steady state.)
