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 rod of length $20 \,\,cm$ is made of metal. It expands by $0.075\,\, cm$ when its temperature is raised from $0^o C$ to $100^o C$. Another rod of a different metal $B$ having the same length expands by $0.045 cm$ for the same change in temperature, a third rod of the same length is composed of two parts one of metal $A$ and the other of metal $B$. Thus rod expand by $0.06 \,\,cm$.for the same change in temperature. The portion made of metal $A$ has the length .............. $cm$
A faulty thermometer has its fixed points marked $5^o$ and $95^o$. This thermometer reads the temperature of a body as $59^o$. Then, the correct temperature of the body on the Celsius scale is ...... $^o$
Steam at $100\,^oC$ is more dangerous than the same mass of water at $100\,^oC$ because the steam
A rod is fixed between two points at $20\,^oC$ . The coefficient of linear expansion of material of rod is $1.1 \times 10^{-5}/\,^oC$ and Young's modulus is $1.2 \times 10^{11}\,N/m^2$. Find the stress developed in the rod if temperature of rod becomes $10\,^oC$
A pendulum clock keeps correct time at $0\ ^oC$. The thermal coefficient of linear expansion of the material of the pendulum is $\alpha$. If the temperature rises to $t\ ^oC$, then the clock loses per day by (in second)
