MHT CET 2022 Physics question
A cylindrical metallic rod in thermal contact with two reservoirs of heat at its two ends conduct an amount of heat 'Q' in time 't'. The metallic rod is melted and the material is formed into a rod of length, four times the length of original rod. The amount of heat conducted by the new rod when placed in thermal contact with the same two reservoirs in time t is 'Q'. Then is
Answer: (A)
Solution
Heat conducted in time is , so for the same reservoirs, material and time. Volume stays constant on melting: with , so . Then $ =
