Fourier law states that heat transfer by conduction is directly proportional to temperature difference and area of heat transfer parallel to direction of heat flow i.e. dQ = -KAdT. Here K represent the thermal conductivity of body, A is the area and dT is the temp. difference. Negative sign show the...

fourier's law of conduction-it states that the rate of heat transfer by conduction along a given direction is directly proportional to temparature gradient along the direction and also directly proportional to the area of heat transfer perpendicular to the direction of heat transfer

Hi, I want to become a software Engineer , so what steps should I follow. Should I prefer IIT or not? I'm going to take admission in class 11th , so please advice me that if IIT is a good option for my career or not. If yes, than I'll star IIT JEE coaching classes with 11th and 12th. Please reply as fast as possible. Thanks.
Yes, you should start preparing for IIT JEE because for becoming a software engineer u need to get admitted in a good engineering college and as we all know IITs are best, also if u will aim for IIT then you can atleast get NITs very easily.
