Physical World Units and Measurements - Result Question 1

1. The unit of thermal conductivity is : [2019]

(a) JmK1

(c) WmK1

(b) Jm1K1

(d) Wm1K1

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. (d) In steady state, the amount of heat flowing from one face to the other face in time dt is given by

H=kA(T1T2)dt

dHdt=kAΔT(k= coefficient of thermal conductivity)

k=dHAdtΔT

Unit of k=Wm1K1
