Assume that the thermal conductivity of copper is twice that of aluminium and four times that of brass. Three metal rods made of copper, aluminium and brass are each 15cm long and 2cm in diameter. These rods are placed end to end, with aluminium between the other two. The free ends of the copper and brass rods are maintained at 100°C and 0°C, respectively. The system is allowed to reach the steady state condition. Assume there is no loss of heat anywhere.
Under steady state condition, the equilibrium temperature of the aluminium-brass junction will be
