Two metal rods $1$ and $2$ of same lengths have same temperature difference between their ends. Their thermal conductivities are $K_1$ and $K_2$ and cross-sectional areas are $A_1$ and $A_2$,respectively. If the rate of heat conduction in rod $1$ is four times that in rod $2$,then:

  • A
    $K_1 A_2 = 4 K_2 A_1$
  • B
    $K_1 A_1 = 4 K_2 A_2$
  • C
    $K_1 = 4 K_2$
  • D
    $K_1 A_1^2 = 4 K_2 A_2^2$

The temperature of the water of a pond is $0^{\circ} C$ while that of the surrounding atmosphere is $-20^{\circ} C$. If the density of ice is $\rho$, the coefficient of thermal conductivity is $k$, and the latent heat of melting is $L$, then the thickness $Z$ of the ice layer formed increases as a function of time $t$ as:

The two ends of a rod of length $L$ and a uniform cross-sectional area $A$ are kept at two temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ $(T_1 > T_2)$. The rate of heat transfer,$\frac{dQ}{dt}$,through the rod in a steady state is given by:
