MCQ
Five identical rods are joined as shown in figure. Point $A$ and $C$ are maintained at temperature $120^o C$ and $20^o C$ respectively. The temperature of junction $B$ will be....... $^oC$
  • A
    $100$
  • B
    $80$
  • $70$
  • D
    $0$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$70$
c
(c) If thermal resistance of each rod is considered $R$ then, the given combination can be redrawn as follows

(Heat current)$_{AC} =$ (Heat current)$_{AB}$

$\frac{{(120 - 20)}}{R} = \frac{{(120 - \theta )}}{R}$

==> $\theta = 70^\circ C$
