The coefficient of apparent expansion of mercury in a glass vessel is $153 × 10^{-6}{°C^{-1}}$ and in a steel vessel is $144 × 10^{-6}{°C^{-1}}$. If $\alpha$ for steel is $12 × 10^{-6}{°C^{-1}}$, then that of glass is
$9 \times 10{^{-6}}{°C^{-1}}$
$6 \times 10{^{-6}}{°C^{-1}}$
$36 \times 10{^{-6}}{°C^{-1}}$
$27 \times 10{^{-6}}{°C^{-1}}$
Steam at $100\,^oC$ is passed into $22\,g$ of water at $20\,^oC$ The mass of water that will be present when the water acquires a temperature of $90\,^oC$ (Latent heat of steam is $540\,cal/g$) is ......... $\mathrm{g}$
A constant volume gas thermometer shows pressure reading of $50 \,cm$ and $90 \,cm$ of mercury at $0^{\circ} C$ and $100^{\circ} C$ respectively. When the pressure reading is $60 \,cm$ of mercury, the temperature is ......... $^{\circ} C$
$540\ g$ of ice at $0\ ^oC$ is mixed with $540\ g$ water at $80\ ^oC$. The final temperature of the mixture 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 bimetallic strip consists of metals $A$ and $B$ . It is mounted rigidly at the base as shown. The metal $A$ has a higher coefficient of expansion to that for metal $B$ . When bimetallic strip is placed in a cold bath it will
