A solid cube having certain fixed melting and boiling points takes heat from some source. The variation of temperature $\theta$ of the cube with the heat supplied $Q$ is shown in the adjoining graph. The portion $BC$ of the graph represents the conversion of
Solid into vapour
Solid into liquid
Liquid into vapour
Vapour into liquid
A block of ice at $-10\,^oC$ is slowly heated and converted to steam at $100\,^oC.$ Which of the following curves represent the phenomenon qualitatively ?
On a new scale of temperature (which is linear) and called the $W$ scale, the freezing and boiling points of water are $39\,^oW$ and $239\,^oW$ respectively. What will be the temperature on the new scale, corresponding to a temperature of $39\,^oC$ on the Celsius scale ? ............. $^\circ \mathrm{W}$
If the volume of a block of metal changes by $0.12\%$ when it is heated through $20^o\,C$, the coefficient of linear expansion (in per $^oC^{-1}$) of the metal is :-
A pendulum clock keeps correct time at $0\,^oC$. The thermal coefficient of linear expansion of the material of the pendulum is $\alpha $. If the temperature rises to $t\,^oC$, then the clock loses per day by (in second)
Compared to a burn due to water at $100\,^oC,$ a burn due to steam at $100\,^oC$ is
