Two rods, one of length L and the other of length 2 L are made of the same material and have the same diameter. The two ends of the longer rod are maintained at 1000 C. One end of the shorter rod is maintained at 1000 C while the other end is insulated. Both the rods are exposed to the same environment at 400 C. The temperature at the insulated end of the shorter rod is measured to be 550 C. The temperature at the mid-point of the longer rod would be

1.  400 C

2.  500 C

3.  550 C

4.  1000 C
