Three rods are joined to form a triangle . Length of the rods and each are equal to and their coefficient of linear expansion is whereas length of is and its coefficient of linear expansion is Ratio , such that the height does not change upon heating the rods by same temperature, is . Value of , is



Important Questions on Thermal Properties of Matter


The figure shows a composite rod made of two different material of thermal conductivity and respectively. The length of two rods are shown in figure. If the end temperature are and respectively, then the temperature of interface is Value of , is




A brass rod and an aluminium rod each of length and same cross section area are placed in contact with each other as shown. Temperature of both the rods is raised by . The coeffcients of linear expansion of brass and aluminium are and respectively. If the Young's moduli of brass and aluminium are and respectively then stress in the rods is
