Three rods \(A B, B C\) and \(B D\) made of the same material and having the same cross-section have been joined as shown in the figure.

The ends \(A, C\) and \(D\) are held at temperatures of \(20^{\circ} \mathrm{C}, 80^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) and \(80^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) respectively. If each rod is of same length, then the temperature at the junction \(B\) of the three rods is

  1. A \(90^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
  2. B \(60^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
  3. C \(40^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
  4. D \(30^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(60^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let the temperature of function \(\theta\). Since, \(\operatorname{rod} B C\) and \(B D\) are parallel to each other (because both having the same temperature difference). Hence, given figure can be redrawn as follows ( \(R\) be the resistance of each rod).…
