QAIPMT-2005-Ph-2551: NEET 2005 Physics - Class 11 AIPMT-2005-Ph-2551 Solution: Which of the following rods, (given radius r and length l) each …

Which of the following rods, (given radius r and length l) each made of the same material and whose ends are maintained at the same temperature will conduct most heat?

Multiple Choice Options

  • A r=r0r=r_0, l=l0l=l_0
  • B r=2r0r=2r_0, l=l0l=l_0
  • C r=r0r=r_0, l=2l0l=2l_0
  • D r=2r0r=2r_0, l=2l0l=2l_0

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Heat conducted = K A ( T 1 _ T 2 ) t l = K � r 2 ( T 1 _ T 2 ) t l The rod with the maximum ratio of A/ l will conduct most. Here the rod with r = 2r 0 and l = l 0 will conduct most.
