Two metal bars X and Y have the lengths of 70 cm and 30 cm. Both have the same cross-sectional area. At one end of the metal X, heat is supplied from boiling water at 100 ºC and one end of the metal Y is placed in melting ice at 0 0C. Both metal are well-insulated. The temperature at the adjoint is 150C. Calculate the ratio of thermal conductivity between metal X and Y
