Three discs $A, B$ and $C$ having radii $2\; m, 4\;m,$ and $6 \;m$, respectively are coated with carbon black on their outer surfaces. The wavelengths corresponding to maximum intensity are $300\; nm, 400\; nm$ and $500\; nm$, respectively. The power radiated by them are $Q_A,Q_B$ and $Q_C$ respectively.

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
Liquid is filled in a vessel which is kept in a room with temperature ${20^o}C$. When the temperature of the liquid is ${80^o}C$, then it loses heat at the rate of $60\;cal/\sec $. What will be the rate of loss of heat when the temperature of the liquid is ${40^o}C$ ....... $cal/\sec $
On a clear sunny day, an object at temperature $T$ is placed on the top of a high mountain. An identical object at the same temperature is placed at the foot of mountain. If both the objects are exposed to sun-rays for two hours in an identical manner, the object at the top of the mountain will register a temperature
Two plates $A$ and $B$ have thermal conductivities $84\,Wm ^{-1}\,K ^{-1}$ and $126\,Wm ^{-1}\,K ^{-1}$ respectively. They have same surface area and same thickness. They are placed in contact along their surfaces. If the temperatures of the outer surfaces of $A$ and $B$ are kept at $100^{\circ}\,C$ and $0{ }^{\circ}\,C$ respectively, then the temperature of the surface of contact in steady state is $..........\,{ }^{\circ} C$.
If a piece of metal is heated to temperature $\theta$ and then allowed to cool in a room which is at temperature $\theta_0$, the graph between the temperature $T$ of the metal and time t will be closest to
According to Newton’s law of cooling, the rate of cooling of a body is proportional to ${(\Delta \theta )^n}$, where $\Delta \theta $ is the difference of the temperature of the body and the surroundings, and n is equal to
A piece of iron is heated in a flame. It first becomes dull red then becomes reddish yellow and finally turns to white hot. The correct explanation for the above observation is possible by using
$A$ wall has two layers $A$ and $B$ made of different materials. The thickness of both the layers is the same. The thermal conductivity of $A$ and $B$ are $K_A$ and $K_B$ such that $K_A = 3K_B$. The temperature across the wall is $20°C$ . In thermal equilibrium
