The volume of a metal sphere increases by $0.15\%$ when its temperature is raised by $24\,^oC$.The coefficient of linear expansion of metal is
$2.5\times10^{-5} /^oC$
$2.0\times10^{-5} /^oC$
$-1.5\times10^{-5} /^oC$
$1.2\times10^{-5} /^oC$
An iron ball of mass $0.2\,kg$ is heated to $10\,^oC$ and put into a block of ice at $0\,^oC.$ $25\,g$ of ice melts. If the latent heat of fusion of ice is $80\,cal/g,$ then the specific heat of iron in $cal/g\,^oC$ is
A centigrade and a Fahrenheit thermometer are dipped in boiling water. The temperature is lowered until the Fahrenheit thermometer registers $140^o$ . ........ $^oC$ is the fall in temperature as registered by the Centigrade thermometer
If mass-energy equivalence is taken into account, when water is cooled to from ice. The mass of water should
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
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
