The coefficient of apparent expansion of mercury in a glass vessel is $153\times 10^{-6}/\,^oC$ and in a steel vessel is $144\times 10^{-6}/\,^oC.$ If $\alpha $ for steel is $12 \times 10^{-6}/\,^oC,$ then $\alpha $ that of glass is
$9 \times 10^{-6}/\,^oC$
$6 \times 10^{-6}/\,^oC$
$36 \times 10^{-6}/\,^oC$
$27 \times 10^{-6}/\,^oC$
Six identical conducting rods are joined as shown. The ends $A$ and $D$ are maintained at $200\,^oC$ and $20\,^oC$ respectively. No heat is lost to surroundings. The temperature of the junction $C$ will be ........ $^oC$
Steam at $100\,^oC$ is passed into $1.1\,kg$ of water contained in calorimeter of water equivalent $0.02\ kg$ at $15\,^oC$ till the temperature of the calorimeter rises to $80\,^oC$. The mass of steam condensed in kilogram is
The temperature of a body on Kelvin scale is found to be $X\;K$. When it is measured by a Fahrenheit thermometer, it is found to be ${X^0}F$. Then $X$ is
Compared to a burn due to water at $100\,^oC,$ a burn due to steam at $100\,^oC$ is
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 $\alpha$
