One end of a steel rod is connected to one end of a copper rod. The copper end of the composite rod is immersed in boiling water and the other end is immersed n a water-ice mixture. The length of the copper section is 100 cm. Both rods have a cross-sectional area of 5 cm². The temperature of the copper-steel unction is 60°C. The thermal conductivity of copper is 401 W/(m K). The thermal conductivity of this steel rod is 52 W/(m K).

Thermal Expansion
One end of a steel rod is connected to one end of a copper rod. The copper end
of the composite rod is immersed in boiling water and the other end is immersed
in a water-ice mixture. The length of the copper section is 100 cm. Both rods
have a cross-sectional area of 5 cm². The temperature of the copper-steel
junction is 60°C.
The thermal conductivity of copper is 401 W/(m K).
The thermal conductivity of this steel rod is 52 W/(m K).
