A plane, solid slab of thickness L, shown in the figure, has thermal conductivity k that varies with the spatial coordinate x as k = A + Bx, where A and B are positive constants (A > 0, B > 0). The slab walls are maintained at fixed temperatures of T(x = 0) = 0 and T(x = L) = T0 > 0. The slab has no internal heat sources. Considering one-dimensional heat transfer, which one of the following plots qualitatively depicts the steady-state temperature distribution within the slab?

A plastic sleeve of outer radius $${r_0} = 1\,\,mm$$ covers a wire (radius $$r = 0.5$$ $$mm$$) carrying electric current. Thermal conductivity of the plastic is $$0.15\,\,W/m$$-$$K$$. The heat transfer coefficient on the outer surface of the sleeve exposed to air is $$25$$ $$W/{m^2}$$-$$K$$. Due to the addition of the plastic cover, the heat transfer from the wire to the ambient will
A
increases
B
remain the same
C
decreases
D
be zero
