50°C and 0°C respectively. All the rods are of equal length and cross-section. Under steady state
conditions, assume that no heat is lost from the sides of the rods. Let Q1, Q2 and Q3 be the rate of
transmission of heat along the three rods AB, BC and CA. Then

Q.9 A thermally insulated piece of metal is heated under atmospheric pressure by an electric current so that it
receives electric energy at a constant power P. This leads to an increase of the absolute temperature T of the
