Heat and Thermal ExpansionHard
Question
A ring consisting of two parts ADB and ACB of same conducting k carries an amount of heat H. The ADB part is now replaced with another metal keeping the temperatures T1 and T2 constant . The carried increase to 2H. What should be the conductivity of the new ADB part ? Give
= 3


Options
A.
k
B.2 k
C.
k
D.3 k
Solution
H =
and 2H = 
(where R & R’ are thermal resistances.)

⇒ k′ =
(k′ = cond. of ADB wire).
(where R & R’ are thermal resistances.)
⇒ k′ =
