Questions and Answers

In a composite wall with three different materials having thermal conductivities $k$, $2k$, and $4k$ respectively, the temperature drop across different materials will be in the ratio

  • 1 : 1 : 1
  • 1 : 2 : 4 (correct)
  • 2 : 4 : 1
  • 4 : 2 : 1

The thermal diffusivity of a substance is given by

  • $\frac{k}{\rho c}$
  • $\frac{d}{k\rho}$
  • $k c/\rho$
  • $\frac{\rho c}{k}$ (correct)

The total emissive power of a blackbody surface is related to its radiation intensity $I$ as

  • $E = 4\pi I$ (correct)
  • $E = \pi I$
  • $E = \pi^2 I$
