Question
A long metallic bar is carrying heat from one of its ends to the other end under steady-state. The variation of temperature θ along the length x of the bar from its hot end is best described by which of the following figure.
Options
A.

B.

C.

D.

Solution
We know that
In steady state flow of heat
⇒ θH - θ = k′x⇒ θ = θH - k′x
Equation θ - θH - k′x represents a straight line.
In steady state flow of heat
⇒ θH - θ = k′x⇒ θ = θH - k′x
