5. Steady state means there (Heat)in = (Heat)out

T1 T1 > T2 T2
(Heat)in (Heat)out

In steady state, no heat is gained or lost by body, hence 18.

temperature of body remains same. However, at different parts
temperature can be different to maintain flow of heat.
Iron transfers our heat to itself faster as compared to wood.
