A long rod has one end at `0^@C` and other end at a high temperature. The coefficient of thermal conductivity varies with distance from the low temperature end as `K = K_0(1+ax)`, where `K_0 = 10^2` SI unit and `a = 1m^-1` . At what distance from the first end the temperature will be `100^@C`? The area of cross-section is `1cm^2` and rate of heat conduction is 1 W.A. 2.7 mB. 1.7mC. 3 mD. 1.5 m |

Answer» Correct Answer - B `H = (TD)/R` `:. R = (TD)/H = (100 -0)/1` `=100kW^-1` Now, `R= int_(0)^x dR = int_(0)^x ((dx)/(K_0(1+ax)A))` or `100 = int_(0)^x (dx)/(10^2(1+x)(10^-4))` Solving this equation we get, `x = 1.7 m.` |
