Transmission Of Heat Question 329

Question: All the rods have same conductance ‘K’ and same area of cross section ‘A’. If ends A and Care maintained at temperature 2Ty and T respectively then which of the following is/are correct:

Options:

A) Rate of heat flow through ABC, AOC and ADC is same

B) Rate of heat flow through BO and OD is not same

C) Total Rate of heat flow from A to C is $ \frac{P _{o}}{P _{He}}=\frac{1}{8} $

D) Temperature at junctions B, O and D are same

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

[d] By symmetry $ I _{AB}=I _{BC} $ and $ I _{AD}=I _{DC} $

$ \

Therefore $ No current in BO and OD $ T _{B}=T _{O}=T _{D} $
