so that if
Rx = R,
Ry = 2Rx = 2R
Now as in this bridge [(P/Q) = (R/S)], so the bridge is balanced, i.e., the temperature of junctions C
and D is equal and the rod CD becomes ineffective as no heat will flow through it.

Now as the thermal resistance of the bridge between junction B and E is

i.e., RBE = R
RBE (R R) (2R 2R )

The total resistance of bridge between A and E will be
Req = RAB + RBE
= 2R + (4/3)R = (10/3)R
So the net rate of flow of heat through the bridge will be
