A rod length l with the thermally insulated lateral surface is made of a material whose thermal conductivity varies as K = α sin (ln T), where α is a constant. The ends of the rod are kept at temperatures T1 and T2. Find the temperature T(x), where x is the distance from the end whose temperature is T1, and also find the heat flowing per second per unit cross-sectional area.
