Does not change with time but is different at different points of the body

Vedclass · Answer

(D) In a steady state,the temperature at any given point within a body does not change with time.This occurs because the rate of heat entering a specific region of the body is exactly equal to the rate of heat leaving that region.However,the temperature can vary from one point to another within the body,depending on the thermal gradient and the distance from the heat source.Therefore,the correct statement is that the temperature does not change with time but is different at different points of the body.
