Q. In the following figure, two insulating sheets with thermal resistances $R$ and $3R$ as shown in figure. The temperature $\theta$ is

A) $20℃$
B) $60℃$
C) $75℃$
D) $80℃$
Explanation

(d) For the two sheets $H_{1} = H_{2}\lbrack H =$ Rate of heat flow]
$\Rightarrow \frac{(100 - \theta)}{R} = \frac{(\theta - 20)}{3R} \Rightarrow \theta = 80℃$
