10-2.Transmission of Heat
medium

For a small temperature difference between the body and the surroundings the relation between the rate of loss heat $R$ and the temperature of the body is depicted by

A
B
C
D

Solution

(c) Rate of loss of heat $(R)$  $\propto$ temperature difference

==>$R \propto (\theta – {\theta _0})$

==>$R = \;k(\theta – {\theta _0}) = k\theta – k{\theta _0}$(k= constant)
on comparing it with $y = mx + c$ it is observed that, the graph between $R$ and $\theta$ will be straight line with slope $=k$ and intercept
