MCQ
There are two identical vessels filled with equal amounts of ice. The vessels are of different metals., If the ice melts in the two vessels in $20$ and $35$ minutes respectively, the ratio of the coefficients of thermal conductivity of the two metals is
  • A
    $4:7$
  • $7:4$
  • C
    $16:49$
  • D
    $49:16$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$7:4$
b
(b) $Q = \frac{{KA({\theta _1} - {\theta _2})}}{l}t = $ $ \Rightarrow {K_1}{t_1} = {K_2}{t_2}$ $ \Rightarrow \frac{{{K_1}}}{{{K_2}}} = \frac{{{t_2}}}{{{t_1}}} = \frac{{35}}{{20}} = \frac{7}{4}$
(As $Q$ , $l$ , $A$ and $({\theta _1} - {\theta _2})$ are same)

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.

Assertion $A$ : When a body is projected at an angle $45^{\circ}$, it's range is maximum.

Reason $R$ : For maximum range, the value of $\sin 2 \theta$ should be equal to one.
