MCQ
Find the amount of heat supplied to decrease the volume of an ice water mixture by $1 \,\,cm^3$ without any change in temperature. $(\rho_ {ice} = 0.9 \rho_{water}, L_{ice} = 80 \,\,cal/gm).$ ......... $cal$
  • A
    $360$
  • B
    $500$
  • $720$
  • D
    none of these

Answer

Correct option: C.
$720$
c
$x$ gm ice convert into $x$ gm water

$\frac{x}{0.9}-x=1 \Rightarrow x=\frac{0.9}{0.1}=9$

$\therefore Q=9 \times 80=720 \mathrm{cal}$

The ends $\mathrm{Q}$ and $\mathrm{R}$ of two thin wires, $\mathrm{PQ}$ and $RS$, are soldered (joined) togetker. Initially each of the wires has a length of $1 \mathrm{~m}$ at $10^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$. Now the end $\mathrm{P}$ is maintained at $10^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$, while the end $\mathrm{S}$ is heated and maintained at $400^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$. The system is thermally insulated from its surroundings. If the thermal conductivity of wire $\mathrm{PQ}$ is twice that of the wire $RS$ and the coefficient of linear thermal expansion of $P Q$ is $1.2 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}$, the change in length of the wire $\mathrm{PQ}$ is
