Answer:
Option A,C,D
Explanation:
Thermal resistance
R=lKA
∴ RA=L(2K)(4Lω)=18Kω
(here , ω= width)
RB=4L3K(Lω)=43Kω
RC=4L(4K)(2Lω)=12Kω
RD=4L(5K)(Lω)=45Kω
RE=L(6K)(Lω)=16Kω
RA:RB:RC:RD:RE
=15:160:60:96:12
So, Let us write , RA=15R,RB=160R etc and draw a simple electrical circuit as shown in figure.

H= Heat current = Rate of heat flow
HA=HE=H (let)
∴ option (a) is correct
in parallel current distributes in inverse ratio of resistance
∴ HB:HC:HD=1RB:1RC:1RD
= 1160:160:196
=9:24-:15
∴ HB=(99+24+15)H=316H
HC=(249+24+15)H=12H
and HD=(159+24+15)H=516H
HC=HB+HD
∴ option (d) is correct
Temperature difference (let us call it T)= (Heat current ) x (Thermal resistance)
TA=HARA=(H)(15R)=15HR
TB=HBRB==(316H)(160R)=30HR
TC=HCRC==(12H)(60R)=30HR
TD=HDRD==(516H)(96R)=30HR
TE=HERE=(H)(12R)=12HR
Here, TE is minimum . Therefore option (c) is also correct
∴ Correct options are (a) (c) and (d)
