Two rods, one made of brass and the other made of copper, arejoined end to end. The length of the brass section is 0.500 m andthe length of the copper section is 0.700 m . Each segment hascross-sectional area 0.00700 m2 . The free end of the brass segmentis in boiling water and the free end of the copper segment is in anice-water mixture, in both cases under normal atmospheric pressure.The sides of the rods are insulated so there is no heat loss to thesurroundings.
A. What is the temperature of the point where the brass andcopper segments are joined?
B.
