A metal rod of silver at $0°C$ is heated to $100°C$. It's length is increased by $0.19\, cm$. Coefficient of cubical expansion of the silver rod is
$5.7 \times 10^{-5}{°C^{-1}}$
$0.63 \times 10^{-5} {°C^{-1}}$
$1.9 \times 10^{-5}{°C^{-1}}$
$16.1 \times 10^{-5} {°C^{-1}}$
Three rods of equal length $l$ are joined to form an equilateral triangle $PQR.$ $O$ is the mid point of $PQ.$ Distance $OR$ remains same for small change in temperature. Coefficient of linear expansion for $PR$ and $RQ$ is same, $i.e., \alpha _2$ but that for $PQ$ is $\alpha _1.$ Then
A lead bullet at $27\ ^oC$ just melts when stooped by an obstacle. Assuming that $25\%$ of heat is absorbed by the obstacle, then the velocity of the bullet at the time of striking ....... $m/s$ ( $M.P.$ of lead $= 327\,^oC$ , specific heat of lead $= 0.03\,cal/g\,^oC$ , latent heat of fusion of lead $= 6\,cal/g$ and $J = 4.2\,joule/cal$ )
Liquid oxygen at $50\ K$ is heated to $300\ K$ at constant pressure of $1\ atm$. The rate of heating is constant. Which of the following graphs represents the variation of temperature with time ?
Steam at $100\,^oC$ is more dangerous than the same mass of water at $100\,^oC$ because the steam
A cylindrical rod with one end in a steam chamber and the outer end in ice results in melting of $0.1 \,\,gm$ of ice per second. If the rod is replaced by another with half the length and double the radius of the first and if the thermal conductivity of material of second rod is $1/4$ that of first, the rate at which ice melts is $gm/sec$ will be
