On a cold morning,a metal surface feels colder than a wooden surface because:

The thickness of a uniform rectangular metal plate is $5 \ mm$ and the area of each surface is $5 \ cm^2$. In steady state, the temperature difference between the two surfaces of the plate is $14^{\circ} C$. If the heat flowing through the plate in one second from one surface to the other surface is $42 \ J$, then the thermal conductivity of the metal is

Two concentric spheres of radii $r_1$ and $r_2$ are maintained at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ respectively. The rate of radial heat flow between the two concentric spheres is proportional to:

If the ratio of the coefficient of thermal conductivity of silver and copper is $10 : 9$,then the ratio of the lengths up to which wax will melt in the Ingen Hausz experiment will be:

Two rods,one made of copper and the other made of steel,of the same length and same cross-sectional area,are joined together. The thermal conductivities of copper and steel are $385 \, W \, m^{-1} \, K^{-1}$ and $50 \, W \, m^{-1} \, K^{-1}$ respectively. The free ends of copper and steel are held at $100^{\circ} \, C$ and $0^{\circ} \, C$ respectively. The temperature at the junction is nearly $.......^{\circ} \, C$.
