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 lead bullet at $27\,^oC$ just melts when stopped by an obstacle. Assuming that $25\%$ of heat is absorbed by the obstacle, then the velocity of the bullet at the time of striking ........ $m/s$ ( $M. P.$ of lead $= 327\,^oC,$ specific heat of lead $= 0.03\,cal/g\,^oC,$ latent heat of fusion of lead $= 6\,cal/g$ and $J = 4.2\,joule/cal$ )

‘Stem Correction’ in platinum resistance thermometers are eliminated by the use of

A bimetallic strip consists of metals $X$  and $Y.$  It is mounted rigidly at the base as shown in the figure. The metal $X$  has a higher coefficient of expansion as compared to that for metal $Y.$  When the bimetallic strip is placed in a cold bath ?

A beaker contains $200\,g$ of water. The heat capacity of the beaker is equal to that of $20\,g$ of water. The initial temperature of water in the beaker is $20\,^oC$. If $440\,g$ of hot water at $92\,^oC$ is poured in it, the final temperature (neglecting radiation loss) will be nearest to ........ $^oC$

If there are no heat losses, the heat released by the condensation of $x$ gm of steam at $100^o C$ into water at $100^o C$ can be used to convert $y$ gm of ice at $0^o C$ into water at $100^o C$. Then the ratio $y : x$ is nearly
