Two rods of same length and cross section are joined along the length. Thermal conductivities of first and second rod are ${K_1}\,\,{\rm{and}}\,\,{K_2}$. The temperature of the free ends of the first and second rods are maintained at ${\theta _1}\,\,{\rm{and }}{\theta _2}$ respectively. The temperature of the common junction is

(c) At steady state, rate of heat flow for both blocks will be same i.e., $\frac{{{K_1}A({\theta _1} - \theta )}}{{{l_1}}} = \frac{{{K_2}A(\theta - {\theta _2})}}{{{l_2}}}$(given ${l_1} = {l_2}$)
$ \Rightarrow {K_1}A({\theta _1} - \theta ) = {K_2}A(\theta - {\theta _2})$ $ \Rightarrow \theta = \frac{{{K_1}{\theta _1} + {K_2}{\theta _2}}}{{{K_1} + {K_2}}}$
