A uniform copper rod 50 cm long is insulated on the sides, and has its ends exposed to ice and steam, respectively. If there is a layer of water 1 mm thick at each end, calculate the temperature gradient in the bar. The thermal conductivity of copper is 436 W m⁻¹ K⁻¹ and that of water is 0.436 W m⁻¹ K⁻¹.
Answer:
40
Solution:
Three layers in series. Per unit area: . W/m². Gradient in copper = °C/m.
