A pendulum clock runs faster by 5 seconds per day at \(20^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\) and goes slow by 10 second per day at \(35^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\). It shows the correct time at a temperature of:
1. \(27.5^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\)
2. \(25^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\)
3. \(30^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\)
4. \(33^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\)
Hot water cools from 60 to 50 in first 10 minutes and from 50 to 42 in next 10 minutes. The temperature of surrounding is :

When a block of iron floats in Hg at , a fraction of its volumen= is submerged, while at temperature of a fraction is seen to be submersed. If the coefficient of volume expansion of iron is and that of mercury is , then the ratio can be expressed as:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Heat capacity is equal to the product of:
1. mass and gas constant
2. mass and specific heat
3. latent heat and volume of water
4. mass and Avogadro number
If is the wavelength, corresponding to which the radiant intensity of a block is at its maximum and its absolute temperature is T, then which of the following graph correctly represents the variation of T?
1. | 2. | ||
3. | 4. |
A body cools down from \(80^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) \(70^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\)
1. | less than 5 minutes. |
2. | equal to 5 minutes. |
3. | more than 5 minutes. |
4. | can't say anything as the temperature of the surroundings is not known. |
A black body at temperature 300K radiates heat at the rate E. If its temperature is increased by 600K, the rate of radiation will increase to -
1. 16E
2. 64E
3. 81E
4. 256E
A temperature of \(100^{\circ}\text {F}\) (Fahrenheit scale) is equal to \(T~\text{K}\) (Kelvin scale). The value of \(T\) is:

2. \(37.8\)
3. \(100\)
4. \(122.4\)
The fastest mode of heat transfer is
1. Conduction
2. Radiation
3. Convection
4. all are equally fast
