MCQ
Bottom of a lake is at $0^{\circ} C$ and atmospheric temperature is $-20^{\circ} C$. If $1 cm$ ice is formed on the surface in $24 \,h$, then time taken to form next $1 \,cm$ of ice is ......... $h$
  • A
    $24$
  • $72$
  • C
    $48$
  • D
    $96$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$72$
b
(b)

Time intervals to change thickness from 0 to $x$ from $x$ to $2 x$ are in ratio of $1: 3: 5: 7 \ldots \ldots$

$\therefore t_1:t_2=1: 3$

$=24: 24 \times 3$

$\Rightarrow t_2=72 \text { hours }$

A spherical soap bubble inside an air chamber at pressure $P_0=10^5 Pa$ has a certain radius so that the excess pressure inside the bubble is $\Delta P=144 Pa$. Now, the chamber pressure is reduced to $8 P_0 / 27$ so that the bubble radius and its excess pressure change. In this process, all the temperatures remain unchanged. Assume air to be an ideal gas and the excess pressure $\Delta P$ in both the cases to be much smaller than the chamber pressure. The new excess pressure $\Delta P$ in $Pa$ is
