    Five rods of same dimensions are arranged as shown in the figure. They have thermal conductivities \[{{k}_{1}},\text{ }{{k}_{2}},\text{ }{{k}_{3}},\text{ }{{k}_{4}}\]and \[{{k}_{5}}\]when points A and B are maintained at different temperatures. No heat flows through the central rod if:

    A)  \[{{k}_{1}}{{k}_{4}}={{k}_{2}}{{k}_{3}}\]

    B)  \[{{k}_{1}}={{k}_{4}}\,and\,{{k}_{2}}={{k}_{3}}\]

    C)  \[\frac{{{k}_{1}}}{{{k}_{4}}}=\frac{{{k}_{2}}}{{{k}_{3}}}\]

    D)  \[{{k}_{1}}{{k}_{2}}={{k}_{3}}{{k}_{4}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    No heat will flow through CD if \[\frac{{{k}_{1}}}{{{k}_{2}}}=\frac{{{k}_{3}}}{{{k}_{4}}}\] \[{{k}_{1}}{{k}_{4}}={{k}_{2}}{{k}_{3}}\]
