The temperature of a body is given by $T = 6t^2 + 4$. The rate of change of temperature with respect to time at $t = 10 \ s$ is ........ $K/s$. ($T$ is in $Kelvin$ and $t$ is in $seconds$)

'Stem correction' in platinum resistance thermometers is eliminated by the use of

In a thermocouple,if the thermo $EMF$ is given by $E = 40\theta - \frac{\theta^2}{20}$,then the neutral temperature will be .......... $^oC$.

What are freezing and freezing point?

The heat required to change $1 \,kg$ of ice at $-8^{\circ} C$ into water at $20^{\circ} C$ at $1 \,atm$ of pressure is closest to .............$\,kJ$. (Assume that ice has a specific heat capacity $2.1 \,kJ / kg \cdot K$,water has a specific heat capacity $4.2 \,kJ / kg \cdot K$,and the latent heat of fusion of ice is $333 \,kJ / kg$.)

Calculate the heat required to convert $3 \; kg$ of ice at $-12 \; ^{\circ}C$ kept in a calorimeter to steam at $100 \; ^{\circ}C$ at atmospheric pressure. Given: specific heat capacity of ice $= 2100 \; J \; kg^{-1} \; K^{-1}$,specific heat capacity of water $= 4186 \; J \; kg^{-1} \; K^{-1}$,latent heat of fusion of ice $= 3.35 \times 10^{5} \; J \; kg^{-1}$,and latent heat of steam $= 2.256 \times 10^{6} \; J \; kg^{-1}$.
