When two ends of a rod wrapped with cotton are maintained at different temperatures and, after some time, every point of the rod attains a constant temperature, then:

1. Conduction of heat at different points of the rod stops because the temperature is not increasing
2. The rod is a bad conductor of heat
3. Heat is being radiated from each point of the rod
4. Each point of the rod is giving heat to its neighbour at the same rate at which it is receiving heat

Two thin blankets keep more hotness than one blanket of thickness equal to these two. The reason is

(1) Their surface area increases

(2) A layer of air is formed between these two blankets, which is bad conductor

(3) These have more wool

(4) They absorb more heat from outside

Ice formed over lakes has

1. Very high thermal conductivity and helps in further ice formation
2. Very low conductivity and retards further formation of ice
3. It permits quick convection and retards further formation of ice
4. It is very good radiator

Wires A and B have identical lengths and have circular cross-sections. The radius of A is twice the radius of B i.e. rA=2rB . For a given temperature difference between the two ends, both wires conduct heat at the same rate. The relation between the thermal conductivities is given by

(1) KA=4KB                     
(2) KA=2KB
(3) KA=KB/2                   
(4) KA=KB/4
