    The ratio of thermal conductivity of two rods of different material is 5 4. The two rods of same area of cross-section and same thermal resistance will have the lengths in the ratio

    A)  45                                         

    B)  91

    C)   19                                        

    D)  54

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     The thermal resistance R is given by \[R=\frac{l}{K\,A}\]where I is length of conducting material, K the coefficient of thermal conductivity, A the area Given,   \[{{R}_{1}}={{R}_{2}}\] \[\frac{{{K}_{1}}{{A}_{1}}}{{{d}_{1}}}=\frac{{{K}_{2}}{{A}_{2}}}{{{d}_{2}}}\] Given,   \[{{A}_{1}}={{A}_{2}}\],   \[{{K}_{1}}:{{K}_{2}}=5:4\] \[\therefore \]  \[\frac{{{d}_{1}}}{{{d}_{2}}}=\frac{{{K}_{1}}{{A}_{1}}}{{{K}_{2}}{{A}_{2}}}=\frac{5}{4}\]
