10-2.Transmission of Heat
medium

A constant potential difference is applied to the ends of a graphite rod, whose resistance decreases with a rise of temperature. The rod can be $(1)$ covered with asbestos or $(2)$ left open to atmosphere. Answer for steady state.

A

in both cases power lost is same but temperature of rod is more in case- $1$

B

in case- $1$ power lost as well as temperature of rod is more

C

in case- $2$ power lost as well as temperature of rod is more

D

in case- $1$ power lost is more but temperature of rod is less

Solution

In steady state, as asbestos is a poor conductor of heat than air, temperature of rod $( 1 )$ will be higher.

Also as temperature of rod $(1)$ is high

$\Rightarrow r \downarrow \Rightarrow \frac{v^{2}}{r} \uparrow$
