A vertical glass capillary tube open at both ends contains some water. Which of the following shapes may be taken by the water in the tube?
A small quantity, mass $m$ , of water at a temperature $\theta $ (in $^oC$ ) is poured on to a large mass $M$ of ice which is at its melting point. If $c$ is the specific heat of water and $L$ the latent heat of fusion of ice, then the mass of ice melted is given by
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 ?
If mass-energy equivalence is taken into account, when water is cooled to from ice. The mass of water should
If an electric heater is rated at $1000\,W$, then the time required to heat one litre of water from $20\,^oC$ to $60\,^oC$ is
