A wall is made up of two layers, A and B. The thickness of the two layers is the same, but the materials are different. The thermal conductivity of A is double that of B. If in thermal equilibrium, the temperature difference between the two ends is \(36^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\), then the difference in temperature between the two surfaces of A will be:
1. \(6^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\)

2. \(12^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\)

3. \(18^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\)

4. \(24^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\)

Two identical bodies are made of a material whose heat capacity increases with temperature. One of these is at \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), while the other one is at \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). If the two bodies are brought into contact, then assuming no heat loss, the final common temperature will be:

1. \(50^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
2.  more than \(50^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) 
3. less than \(50^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) but greater than \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) 
4. \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
