A body initially at $80^o C$ cools to $64^o C$ in $5$ minutes and to $52^o C$ in $10 $ minutes. The temperature of the body after $15$ minutes will be ...... $^oC$
For the figure shown, when arc $ACD$ and $ADB$ are made of same material, the heat carried between $A$ and $B$ is $H$ . If $ADB$ is replaced with another material, the heat carried becomes $2H$ . If the temperatures at $A$ and $B$ are fixed at $T_1$ and $T_2$ , what is the ratio of the new conductivity to the old one of $ADB$
Two rods $A$ and $B$ of different materials are welded together as shown in figure.Their thermal conductivities are $K_1$ and $K_2$ The thermal conductivity of the composite rod will be
Two materials having coefficients of thermal conductivity $3K$ and $K$ and thickness $d$ and $3d$, respectively, are joined to form a slab as shown in the figure. The temperatures of the outer surfaces are $\theta_2$ and $\theta_1$ respectively $\left( {\theta _2} > {\theta _1} \right)$ . The temperature at the interface is
The wall with a cavity consists of two layers of brick separated by a layer of air.All three layers have the same thickness and the thermal conductivity of the brick is much greater than that of air. The left layer is at a higher temperature than the right layer and steady state condition exists. Which of the following graphs predicts correctly the variation of temperature $T$ with distance $d$ inside the cavity?
Hot water cools from $60\,^oC$ to $50\,^oC$ in the first $10\,minutes$ and to $42\,^oC$ in the next $10\,minutes.$ The temperature of the surroundings is ...... $^oC$
In the Ingen Hauz’s experiment the wax melts up to lengths $10$ and $25 cm$ on two identical rods of different materials. The ratio of thermal conductivities of the two materials is
A cylinder of radius $R$ is surrounded by a cylindrical shell of inner radius $R$ and outer radius $2R$. The thermal conductivity of the material of the inner cylinder is $K_1$ and that of the outer cylinder is $K_2$. Assuming no loss of heat, the effective thermal conductivity of the system for heat flowing along the length of the cylinder is
