The temperature gradient in a spherical (or cylindrical) wall at steady state will always decrease (in magnitude) with increasing distance from the center (line), i.e. radial distance.
A. True
B. False

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Yes it is true that the Temperature gradient would also decrease with magnitude just as the distances rise from the centre line.

We have this cylinder equation as

[T1-T2 / ln(r1-r2)]2πKL

The radial distance is r2-r1

The gradient of temperature is T1-T2

From the equation,

The temperature gradient has a direct and proportional relationship to radial distance

T1-T2 ∝ ln(r2-r1)

1/T1-T2 = k(r2-r1)

This inverse relationship above confirms that the statement is true
