Three metal rods made of copper, aluminium and brass, each 20 cm long and 4 cm in diameter, are placed end to end with aluminium between the other two. The free ends of copper and brass are maintained at 100 and 0°C respectively. Assume that the thermal conductivity of copper is twice that of aluminium and four times that of brass. The equilibrium temperatures of the copper-aluminium and aluminium-brass junctions are respectively-
