The coefficient of apparent expansion of liquid when determined using two different vessels $A$ and $B$ are $\gamma _1$ and $\gamma _2$ respectively. If the coefficient of linear expansion of the vessel $A$ is $\alpha $, then coefficient of linear expansion of $B$
$\frac{{\alpha {\gamma _1}{\gamma _2}}}{{{\gamma _1} + {\gamma _2}}}$
$\frac{{{\gamma _1} - {\gamma _2}}}{{2\alpha }}$
$\frac{{{\gamma _1} - {\gamma _2} + \alpha }}{3}$
$\frac{{{\gamma _1} - {\gamma _2}}}{3} + \alpha $
$200\, g$ of a solid ball at $20\,^oC$ is dropped in an equal amount of water at $80\,^oC$. The resulting temperature is $60\,^oC$. This means that specific heat of solid is
A centigrade and a Fahrenheit thermometer are dipped in boiling water. The water temp is lowered until the Fahrenheit temp. register $140^o$. What is the fall in the temperature as registered by centigrade thermometer ....... $^oC$
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 :-
Two thermometers $X$ and $Y$ have ice points marked at $15^o$ and $25^o$ and steam points marked as $75^o$ and $125^o$ respectively. When thermometer $X$ measures the temperature of a bath as $60^o$ on it, ..... $^oC$ would thermometer $Y$ read when it is used to measure the temperature of the same bath ?
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
