Two slabs are of the thicknesses 
and 
. Their thermal conductivities are 
and 
respectively. They are in series. The free ends of the combination of these two slabs are kept at temperatures 
and 
. Assume 
. The temperature 
of their common junction is
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
For the first slab
Heat current, 
For the second slab
Heat current, 
As the slabs are connected in series same amount of heat current flows through the slabs.
