Heat flow rate will be same through both
$\therefore \frac{\theta_{1}-\theta}{ R _{1}}=\frac{\theta-\theta_{2}}{ R _{2}}$
$R _{2} \theta_{1}- R _{2} \theta= R _{1} \theta- R _{1} \theta_{2}$
$\theta=\frac{ R _{2} \theta_{1}+ R _{1} \theta_{2}}{ R _{1}+ R _{2}}$

If two metallic plates of equal thicknesses and thermal conductivities ${K_1}$ and ${K_2}$ are put together face to face and a common plate is constructed, then the equivalent thermal conductivity of this plate will be
Suppose the sun expands so that its radius becomes $100$ times its present radius and its surface temperature becomes half of its present value. The total energy emitted by it then will increase by a factor of
A metal rod of length $2\, m$ has cross-sectional areas $2A$ and $A$ as shown in the following figure. The two ends are maintained at temperatures $100\,^oC$ and $70\,^oC$. The temperature of middle point $C$ is ........ $^oC$
Inside a closed furnace held at a temperature of $400\,\, K,$ we have a black body. A hole of area $10\,\, cm^2$ is opened in the furnace so that sunlight starts falling on black body. The intensity of sunlight is $2000\, W/m^2.$ In the steady state
The energy emitted per second by a black body at ${27^o}C$ is $10\;J$. If the temperature of the black body is increased to ${327^o}C$, the energy emitted per second will be ......... $J$
A black metal foil is warmed by radiation from a small sphere at temperature $T$ and at a distance $d$. It is found that the power received by the foil is $`P$ '. If both the temperature and the distance are doubled, the power received by the foil will be
