Two rectangular blocks $A$ and $B$ of different metals have same length and same area of cross-section. They are kept in such a way that their cross-sectional area touch each other. The temperature at one end of $A$ is $100°C$ and that of $B$ at the other end is $0°C$ . If the ratio of their thermal conductivity is $1 : 3$ , then under steady state, the temperature of the junction in contact will be ........ $^oC$

a (a) It is given that $\frac{{{K_1}}}{{{K_2}}} = \frac{1}{3}$ ==> ${K_1} = K$ then ${K_2} = 3K$
the temperature of the junction in contact
$\theta = \frac{{{K_1}{\theta _1} + {K_2}{\theta _2}}}{{{K_1} + {K_2}}}$$ = \frac{{1 \times 100 + 3 \times 0}}{{1 + 3}} = \frac{{100}}{4}$= $25°C$

The sun emits a light with maximum wavelength $510\, mm$ while another star $X$ emits a light with maximum wavelength of $350\, nm$. What is the ratio of surface temperature of sun and the star $X$
A slab of stone of area $0.36\;m ^2$ and thickness $0.1 \;m$ is exposed on the lower surface to steam at $100^{\circ} C$. A block of ice at $0^{\circ} C$ rests on the upper surface of the slab. In one hour $4.8\; kg$ of ice is melted. The thermal conductivity of slab is .......... $J / m / s /{ }^{\circ} C$ (Given latent heat of fusion of ice $=3.36 \times 10^5\; J kg ^{-1}$)
Two identical rods of copper and iron are coated with wax uniformly. When one end of each is kept at temperature of boiling water, the length upto which wax melts are $8.4cm$ and $4.2cm$ respectively. If thermal conductivity of copper is $0.92$ , then thermal conductivity of iron is
The adjoining diagram shows the spectral energy density distribution ${E_\lambda }$of a black body at two different temperatures. If the areas under the curves are in the ratio $16 : 1$ , the value of temperature $T$ is ........ $K$
