A sphere of \(0.047\) kg aluminium is placed for sufficient time in a vessel containing boiling water so that the sphere is at \(100^{\circ}\text{C}\). It is then immediately transferred to a \(0.14\) kg copper calorimeter containing \(0.25\) kg water at \(20^{\circ}\text{C}\). The temperature of water rises and attains a steady-state at \(23^{\circ}\text{C}\). The specific heat capacity of aluminium is: 
(Given that: Specific heat capacity of copper calorimeter \(= 0.386\times 10^{3}~\text{J kg}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}\) and the specific heat capacity of water \(s_w= 4.18\times 10^{3}~\text{J kg}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1})\)

What is the temperature of the steel-copper junction in the steady-state of the system shown in the figure? The length of the steel rod = \(15.0\) cm, length of the copper rod = \(10.0\) cm, temperature of the furnace = \(300^{\circ}\text{C}\), temperature of the other end = \(0^{\circ}\text{C}\). The area of the cross section of the steel rod is twice that of the copper rod. (Thermal conductivity of steel = \(50.2 ~\text{J s}^{-1}\text{m}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1};\) and of copper \(= 385~\text{J s}^{-1}\text{m}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1})\).
