Question (11)
QN0038725

Solid whose specific heat is to be determined is heated uniformly up to a fixed temperature in a hypsometer. It is then dropped in a calorimeter containing known quantity of cold water and the temperature of mixture is recorded. The hot solid will lose heat whereas calorimeter and cold water will give heat till the temperature becomes same throughout.

The above passage is the theory of

  • (A)

    the experiment to determine the rate of cooling of a solid

  • (B)

    the experiment to determine the latent heat of vaporisation of a liquid

  • (C)

    the experiment to determine the latent heat of fusion of a solid

  • (D)

    the experiment to determine the specific heat of a solid

QN0038726

Which type of motion possesed by axis of the screw gauge?

 

  • (A)

    Linear motion

  • (B)

    Translatory motion

  • (C)

    Rotation motion

  • (D)

    None of these

Correct Answer: A
Explanation:

When screw rotates then axis moves front or back i.e. linear motion.

QN0038728

The temperature of water in the experiment to determine the surface tension of water by capillary rise method remains constant because it affects the

  • (A)

    density

  • (B)

    surface tension

  • (C)

    angle of contact

  • (D)

    both density and surface tension

Correct Answer: D
Explanation:

If temperature increases density decreases and surface tension decreases

Question (15)
QN0038729

Specific heat of a solid does not depend on which of the following factors?

  • (A)

    Mass of the solid

  • (B)

    Temperature increase of solid

  • (C)

    Nature of the solid

  • (D)

    Volume of the solid.

Correct Answer: D
Explanation:

Specific heat  so it depends on mass and temperature difference but not on the volume.

Question (16)
QN0038730

When the specific heat of a solid is measured by the method of mixture, the heat is lost to surroundings from the calorimeter by the process of

  • (A)

    radiation

  • (B)

    conduction

  • (C)

    convection

  • (D)

    both conduction and convection.

Correct Answer: A
Explanation:

The surface of the calorimeter is exposed to the air. So heat is lost from the surface by radiation.

QN0038734

Consider the following statements regarding the experiment to determine the surface tension of water by capillary rise method.

      1.Capillary tube should be clean and liquid should be free from dirt and grease.

      2.Distilled water should be avoided.

Choose the correct option.

  • (A)

    Only 1 is correct.

  • (B)

    Only 2 is correct

  • (C)

    Both 1 and 2 are correct.

  • (D)

    Neither 1 nor 2 is correct.

Correct Answer: C
Explanation:

Both the statements are precautions to be taken during the experiment.
