Detailed Solution

Both of the pins are likely to fall at different times in case B.
In case A, P and Q got equal heat, so pin fix at P and Q fall simultaneously. But in case B, the pin at point P falls first, then pin Q falls next because heat received at P is greater than at Q. In this process, heat is transferred by conduction.
