    Two rods A and B of different materials are welded together as shown in figure. If their thermal conductivities are \[{{K}_{1}}\] and \[{{K}_{2}}\] the thermal conductivity of the composite rod will be

    A)  \[\frac{1}{2}\,pV\]

    B)  \[pV\]

    C)  \[2pV\]        

    D)  \[4pV\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Two slabs each of length d and same areas and thermal conductivities \[{{K}_{1}}\] and \[{{K}_{2}}\] are connected in parallel, then Heat current \[H={{H}_{1}}+{{H}_{2}}\] \[\frac{K(2A)\,({{\theta }_{1}}-{{\theta }_{2}})}{2}=\frac{{{K}_{1}}A({{\theta }_{1}}-{{\theta }_{2}})}{d}+\frac{{{K}_{2}}A({{\theta }_{1}}-{{\theta }_{2}})}{d}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[K=\frac{{{K}_{1}}+{{K}_{2}}}{2}\]
