A brass wire \(1.8\) m long at \(27\) °C is held taut with a little tension between two rigid supports. If the wire is cooled to a temperature of\(-39\) °C, what is the tension created in a wire with a diameter of \(2.0\) mm? (coefficient of linear expansion of brass \(=2.0 \times10^{-5}\) K^-1, Young's modulus of brass\(=0.91 \times10^{11}\) Pa)

In an experiment on the specific heat of a metal, a 0.20 kg block of the metal at \(150^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) is dropped in a copper calorimeter (of water equivalent of 0.025 kg) containing 150 \(c m^{3}\) of water at \(27^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\). The final temperature is \(40^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\). The specific heat of the metal will be: (Heat   losses   to   the   surroundings   are   negligible)
1. \(0 . 40  ~ \text{Jg}^{- 1} \text{K}^{- 1}\)
2. \(0 . 43  ~ \text{Jg}^{- 1} \text{K}^{- 1}\)

4. \(0 . 61 ~ \text{Jg}^{- 1} \text{K}^{- 1}\)

The diagram shows a bimetallic strip used as a thermostat in a circuit. Copper expands more than Invar for the same temperature rise.

What will be switched on when the bimetallic strip becomes hot?

A piece of iron is heated in a flame. If it becomes dull red first, then becomes reddish yellow, and finally turns to white hot, the correct explanation for the above observation is possible by using:

A geyser heats water flowing at a rate of 3.0 litres per minute from \(27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)$\mathrm{}$ to \(77^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\)$$. If the geyser operates on a gas burner and its heat of combustion is 4.0×10⁴ J/g, then what is the rate of combustion of fuel (approx)?

A ring consisting of two parts, ADB and ACB, of the same heat conductivity k, conducts an amount of heat H. The ADB part is now replaced with another metal, keeping the temperatures ${\mathrm{T}}_1$ $\mathrm{and}$ ${\mathrm{T}}_2$ constant. The amount of heat carried rises to 2H. What should be the heat conductivity of the new ADB part?  $\left[\mathrm{Given}\frac{\mathrm{ACB}}{\mathrm{ADB}}=3\right]$
