MCQ
The power of water pump is $4 \,kW$. If $g=10 \,ms ^{-2}$, the amount of water it can raise in $1$ minute to a height of $20 \,m$ is ........... $litre$
  • A
    $100$
  • B
    $1000$
  • $1200$
  • D
    $2000$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$1200$
c
(c)

Power $=\frac{\text { Work }}{\text { time }}=\frac{m g h}{t}$

$\frac{m(10)(20)}{60}=4000$

$m=1200 \,kg$

A sphere of ice at $0^o C$ having initial radius $R$ is placed in an environment having ambient temperature $> 0^o C$. The ice melts uniformly, such that shape remains spherical. After a time $‘t’$ the radius of the sphere has reduced to$r$. Assuming the rate of heat absorption is proportional to the surface area of the sphere at any moment, which graph best depicts $r (t)$.
