The temperature \(\theta\) at the junction of two insulating sheets, having thermal resistances \(R _{1}\) and \(R _{2}\) as well as top and bottom temperatures \(\theta_{1}\) and \(\theta_{2}\) (as shown in figure) is given by

Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\frac{\theta_{1} R _{2}+\theta_{2} R _{1}}{ R _{1}+ R _{2}}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Heat flow rate will be same through both
\(\therefore \frac{\theta_{1}-\theta}{ R _{1}}=\frac{\theta-\theta_{2}}{ R _{2}}\)
\(R _{2} \theta_{1}- R _{2} \theta= R _{1} \theta- R _{1} \theta_{2}\)
\(\theta=\frac{ R _{2} \theta_{1}+ R _{1} \theta_{2}}{ R _{1}+ R _{2}}\)
