Question 74

Multiple Choice

A heat-conducting rod, 0.90 m long and wrapped in insulation, is made of an aluminum section
that is 0.20 m Iong and a copper section that is 0.70 m long. Both sections have a cross-sectional area of 0.00040 m20.00040 \mathrm {~m} ^ { 2 } The aluminum end and the copper end are maintained at temperatures of 30C and 230C30 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C } \text { and } 230 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C } respectively. The thermal conductivities of aluminum and copper are 205 W/m . K (aluminum) and 385 W/mK (copper) . 385 \mathrm {~W} / \mathrm { m } \cdot \mathrm { K } \text { (copper) . } What is the temperature of the aluminum-copper
junction in the rod with steady state heat flow?


A) 80C80 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C }
