JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 10.2 transmission of heat
Two metallic blocks \(M_{1}\) and \(M_{2}\) of same area of cross-section are connected to each other (as shown in figure). If the thermal conductivity of \(M _{2}\) is \(K\) then the thermal conductivity of \(M _{1}\) will be ]...............\(K\) [Assume steady state heat conduction]

- A \(10\)
- B \(8\)
- C \(12.5\)
- D \(2\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(8\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\Delta T \propto R \propto \frac{\ell}{ k }\), \(\frac{\Delta T _{1}}{\Delta T _{2}}=\frac{\ell_{1}}{ k _{1}} \times \frac{ k _{2}}{\ell_{2}}=\frac{16}{ k _{1}} \times \frac{ k }{8}\) \(\frac{20}{80}=\frac{16}{ k _{1}} \times \frac{ k }{8} \rightarrow k _{1}=8 k\)
