CBSEENPH11020369

A long metallic bar is carrying heat from one of its ends to the other end under steady-state. The variation of temperature θ along the length x of the bar from its hot end is best described by which of the following figure. 

Solution

B.

We know that dQ over dt space equals space KA dθ over dx
In steady state flow of heat
dθ space equals space dQ over dt.1 over KA. dx
rightwards double arrow straight theta subscript straight H space equals straight theta space equals space straight k apostrophe straight x
rightwards double arrow space straight theta space equals straight theta subscript straight H space minus space straight k apostrophe straight x
Equation space straight theta space equals space straight theta subscript straight H space minus space straight k apostrophe space straight x space represents space straight a space straight space line
