31. Rate of heat flow through a cylindrical rod is $${H_1}.$$ Temperatures of ends of rod are $${T_1}$$ and $${T_2}.$$ If all the dimensions of rod become double and temperature difference remains same and rate of heat flow becomes $${H_2}.$$ Then,

A $${H_2} = 2{H_1}$$
B $${H_2} = \frac{{{H_1}}}{2}$$
C $${H_2} = \frac{{{H_1}}}{4}$$
D $${H_2} = 4{H_1}$$
Answer :   $${H_2} = 2{H_1}$$

32. Four identical rods of same material are joined end to end to form a square. If the temperature difference between the ends of a diagonal is $${100^ \circ }C,$$  then the temperature difference between the ends of other diagonal will be
(where $$l$$ is the length of each rod)

A $${0^ \circ }C$$
B $${\frac{{100}}{l}^ \circ }C$$
C $${\frac{{100}}{{2l}}^ \circ }C$$
D $${100^ \circ }C$$
Answer :   $${0^ \circ }C$$

33. Three rods of identical cross - sectional area and made from the same metal from the sides of an isosceles triangle $$ABC,$$  right - angled at $$B.$$ The points $$A$$ and $$B$$ are maintained at temperatures $$T$$ and $$\left( {\sqrt 2 } \right)$$  $$T$$ respectively. In the steady state, the temperature of the point $$C$$ is $${T_c}.$$  Assuming that only heat conduction takes place, $$\frac{{{T_c}}}{T}$$ is

A $$\frac{1}{{2\left( {\sqrt 2 - 1} \right)}}$$
B $$\frac{3}{{\sqrt 2 + 1}}$$
C $$\frac{1}{{\sqrt 3 \left( {\sqrt 2 - 1} \right)}}$$
D $$\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 + 1}}$$
Answer :   $$\frac{3}{{\sqrt 2 + 1}}$$

34. If two rods $$A$$ and $$B$$ of equal length $$L,$$ and different areas of cross-section $${A_1}$$ and $${A_2}$$ have one end each at temperature $${T_1}$$ and $${T_2},$$ have equal rates of flow of heat, then

A $${A_1} = {A_2}$$
B $$\frac{{{A_1}}}{{{A_2}}} = \frac{{{K_1}}}{{{K_2}}}$$
C $$\frac{{{A_1}}}{{{A_2}}} = \frac{{{K_2}}}{{{K_1}}}$$
D $${K_1} = {K_2}$$
Answer :   $$\frac{{{A_1}}}{{{A_2}}} = \frac{{{K_2}}}{{{K_1}}}$$
