Two metal rods \((1)\) and \((2)\) of the same length have the same temperature difference between their ends. Their thermal conductivities are \({K}_1\) and \({K}_2\) and cross-sectional areas \({A}_{1}\) and \({A}_{2},\) respectively. If the rate of heat conduction in \((1)\) is four times that in \((2),\) then:
| 1. | \(K_1 A_1=4K_2 {A}_2 \) | 2. | \(K_1 {A}_1=2 {K}_2 {A}_2 \) |
| 3. | \(4 {K}_1{A}_1={K}_2 {A}_2 \) | 4. | \({K}_1 {A}_1={K}_2 {A}_2\) |
