Two substances $A$ and $B$ of equal mass $m$ are heated at uniform rate of $6\,cal\,s^{-1}$ under similar conditions. A graph between temperature and time is shown in figure. Ratio of heat absorbed $H_A/H_B$ by them for complete fusion is
$9/4$
$4/9$
$8/5$
$5/8$
A coffee maker makes coffee by passing steam through a mixture of coffee powder, milk and water. If the steam is mixed at the rate of $50 \,g$ per minute in a mug containing $500 \,g$ of mixture, then it takes about $t_0$ seconds to make coffee at $70^{\circ} C$ when the initial temperature of the mixture is $25^{\circ} C$. The value of $t_0$ is close to .......... $s$ (ratio of latent heat of evaporation to specific heat of water is $540^{\circ} C$ and specific heat of the mixture can be taken to be the same as that of water)
The figure shows a glass tube (linear co-efficient of expansion is $\alpha$) completely filled with a liquid of volume expansion co-efficient $\gamma$. On heating length of the liquid column does not change. Choose the correct relation between $\gamma$ and $\alpha$
If a bimetallic strip is heated it will
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 ?
A block of ice at $-20\,^oC$ having a mass of $2\,kg$ is added to a $3\,kg$ water at $15\,^oC$. Neglecting heat losses and the heat capacity of the container
