MCQ
Three large identical plates are kept parallel to each other. The outer two plates are maintained at temperatures $T$ and $2 T$, respectively. The temperature of the middle plate in steady state will be close to ........... $T$
  • A
    $1.1$
  • B
    $1.3$
  • $1.7$
  • D
    $1.9$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$1.7$
c
$(c)$ Plates does not touch each other, so exchange of heat takes place in form of radiations.

In steady state, heat gained by middle plate $=$ heat lost by it.

$\Rightarrow$ Heat radiations from plate $A+$ Heat radiations from plate $B=$ Heat radiations emitted from both surfaces

$\Rightarrow A \varepsilon \sigma T^{4}+A \varepsilon \sigma(2 T)^{4}=2 A \varepsilon \sigma\left(T_{1}\right)^{4}$

$\Rightarrow \quad T^{4}+2^{4} T^{4}=2 T_{1}^{4} \Rightarrow \frac{17}{2} T^{4}=T_{1}^{4}$

$\Rightarrow \quad T_{1}^{4}=\left(\frac{17}{2}\right)^{\frac{1}{4}} \cdot T \text { or } T_{1}=1.7 T$

When liquid medicine of density $\rho$ is to be put in the eye, it is done with the help of a dropper. As the bulb on the top of the dropper is pressed, a drop forms at the opening of the dropper. We wish to estimate the size of the drop. We first assume that the drop formed at the opening is spherical because that requires a minimum increase in its surface energy. To determine the size, we calculate the net vertical force due to the surface tension $T$ when the radius of the drop is $\mathrm{R}$. When the force becomes smaller than the weight of the drop, the drop gets detached from the dropper.

$1.$ If the radius of the opening of the dropper is $\mathrm{r}$, the vertical force due to the surface tension on the drop of radius $R$ (assuming $\mathrm{r} \ll R$ ) is

$(A)$ $2 \pi r T$ $(B)$ $2 \pi R T$ $(C)$ $\frac{2 \pi r^2 T}{R}$ $(D)$ $\frac{2 \pi R^2 T}{r}$

$2.$ If $\mathrm{r}=5 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~m}, \rho=10^3 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{-3}, \mathrm{~g}=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2, \mathrm{~T}=0.11 \mathrm{Nm}^{-1}$, the radius of the drop when it detaches from the dropper is approximately

$(A)$ $1.4 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m}$ $(B)$ $3.3 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m}$

$(C)$ $2.0 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m}$ $(D)$ $4.1 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m}$

$3.$ After the drop detaches, its surface energy is

$(A)$ $1.4 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~J}$ $(B)$ $2.7 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~J}$

$(C)$ $5.4 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~J}$ $(D)$ $8.1 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~J}$
