The coefficient of thermal conductivity of copper, mercury and glass are respectively `K_(c), K_(m)` and `K_(g)` that `K_(c) gt K_(m) gt K_(g)`. If the same quantity of heat is to flow per second per unit of each and corresponding temperature gradients are `X_(c), X_(m)` and `X_(g)`, thenA. `X_x=X_m=X_g`B. `X_c gt X_m gt X_g`C. `X_c lt X_m lt X_g`D. `X_m lt X_c lt X_g` |

Answer» Correct Answer - C `(dQ//dt)/(A)=K((Deltatheta)/(Deltax))implies` Rate of flow of heat per unit area = Thermal conductivity`xx`Temperature gradient Temperature gradient `(X)prop(1)/("Thermal conductivity(K)")` (As `(dQ//dt)/(A)=` constant) As `K_C gt K_m gt K_G`, therefore `X_(c) lt X_(m) lt X_(g)` |
