A given mass $m$ of a hypothetical solid is supplied with heat continuously at a constant rate and the graph shown in the adjacent figure is plotted. If $L_f$ and $L_v$ are latent heats of fusion and latent heats of vaporization and $S_l$ and $S_s$ are specific heats of liquid and solid respectively. It can be concluded that

A

$L_f > L_v,S_l = S_s$

B

$L_f < L_v,S_l > S_s$

C

$L_f > L_v,S_l < S_s$

D

$L_f = L_v,S_l > S_s$

Solution

Let rate of heat supplied be $Q. J/sec$
Total heat given in melting
$= Q \times (90 -10) = 80 Q$ $J$
Total heat given in vapourization $=$ $Q$ $(120 – 100)$
$=$ $20$ $Q$ $J$
$L_v < L_f$
Inverse of slope of line represent the specific
heat, $S_s > S_l$

A child running a temperature of $101\,^{\circ} F$ is given an antipyrin (i.e. a medicine that lowers fever) which causes an increase in the rate of evaporation of sweat from his body. If the fever is brought down to $98\,^{\circ} F$ in $20$ minutes, what is the average rate of extra evaporation caused, by the drug (in $g/min$). Assume the evaporation mechanism to be the only way by which heat is lost. The mass of the child is $30\; kg$. The spectfic heat of human body is approximately the same as that of water, and latent heat of evaporation of water at that temperature is about $580\; cal \;g^{-1}$.
