hree rods of same dimensions are arranged as shown in figure they have thermal conductivities ${K_1},{K_2}$ and${K_3}$ The points $P$ and $Q$ are maintained at different temperatures for the heat to flow at the same rate along $PRQ$ and $PQ$ then which of the following option is correct
A copper rod $2\,m$ long has a circular cross-section of radius $1\, cm$. One end is kept at $100^o\,C$ and the other at $0^o\,C$ and the surface is covered by nonconducting material to check the heat losses through the surface. The thermal resistance of the bar in degree kelvin per watt is (Take thermal conductivity $K = 401\, W/m-K$ of copper):-
If wavelengths of maximum intensity of radiations emitted by the sun and the moon are $0.5 \times {10^{ - 6}}m$ and ${10^{ - 4}}m$ respectively, the ratio of their temperatures is
The maximum wavelength of radiations emitted at $900\,K$ is $4\mu m$. What will be the maximum wavelength of radiations emitted at $1200 \,K$ ......... $\mu m$
Assuming the sun to have a spherical outer surface of radius $r$, radiating like a black body at temperature $t^o C$, the power received by a unit surface, (normal to the incident rays) at a distance $R$ from the centre of the sun is
A black body radiates energy at the rate of $E$ $W/m^2$ at a high temperature $TK$ . When the temperature is reduced to $\frac{T}{2}K$, the radiant energy will be
An object kept in a large room having air temperature of $25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ takes $12$ minutes to cool from $80^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ to $70^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$. The time taken to cool for the same object from $70^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ to $60^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ would be nearly.....$min$
Two identical square rods of metal are welded end to end as shown in figure $(a)$. Assume that $10\, cal$ of heat flows through the rods in $2\, min$. Now the rods are welded as shown in figure, $(b)$. The time it would take for $10$ cal to flow through the rods now, is ........ $\min$
