Question

PQ is a metal bar (insulated at curved surface) containing a section XY of a material of lower thermal conductivity. Ends P and Q are maintained at different temperatures. In steady state, the temperature difference across XY would depend on

Solution

The correct options are
A Temperature difference between P and Q
B The metal with which the bar is made
C The thickness of section XY
The temperature across XY depends on the temperature difference across PQ, the ratio of thermal conductance of XY and the metal bar.
