Question (1)
QN0035783

A bimetallic strip is made of aluminium and steel  ). On heating, the strip will 

  • (A)

    remain straight

  • (B)

    get twisted

  • (C)

    will bend with aluminium on concave side            

  • (D)

    will bend with steel on concave side

Correct Answer: D
Explanation:

If strips of aluminium and steel are fixed together on metallic strip and both are heated then  aluminium will exapnd more because the metallic strip with higher coefficient of linear expansion  will expand more Thus it should have larger radius of curvature. Hence, aluminium will be on convex side.

Question (2)
QN0035784

A uniform metallic rod rotates about its perpendicular bisector with constant angular speed. If it is heated uniformly to raise its temperature slightly

  • (A)

    its speed of rotation increases 

  • (B)

    its speed of rotation decreases

  • (C)

    its speed of rotation remains same

  • (D)

    its speed increases because its moment of inertia increases

Correct Answer: B
Explanation:

 On heating a uniform metallic rod its length will increase so moment of inertia of rod increased from  to . No external torque is acting on the system so angular momentum should be conserved.

Angular momentum  constant

So,

Due to expansion of the

So, angular veloctiy decreases.

Question (4)
QN0035786

An aluminium sphere is dipped into water. Which of the following is true?

  • (A)

    Buoyancy will be less in water at  than that in water at 

  • (B)

    Buoyancy will be more in water at  than that in water at 

  • (C)

    Buoyancy in water at  will be same as that in water at 

  • (D)

    Buoyancy may be more or less in water at  depending on the radius of the sphere

Correct Answer: A
Explanation:

As we know that, the Buoyant force  on a body volume  and density of , when immersed in liquid of density  is

where  volume of displaced liquid by dipped body . Let volume of the sphere is  and  is its density, then we can write buoyant force

Hence, buoyancy will be less in water at  than that in water at .

Question (5)
QN0035787

As the temperature is increased, the period of a pendulum

  • (A)

    increases as its effective length increases even though its centre of mass still remains at the centre of the bob

  • (B)

    decreases as its effective length increases even though its centre of mass still remains at the centre of the bob

  • (C)

    increases as its effective length increases due to shifting to centre of mass below the centre of the bob

  • (D)

    decreases as its effective length remains same but the centre of mass shifts above the centre of the bob

Correct Answer: A
Explanation:

As the temperature increased the length  of the pendulum increases due to expansion is linear.

So, Time period of pendulum

Hence on increasing temperature, time period  also increases.

Question (6)
QN0035788

Heat is associated with

  • (A)

    kinetic energy of random motion of molecules

  • (B)

    kinetic energy of orderly motion of molecules 

  • (C)

    total kinetic energy of random and orderly motion of molecules

  • (D)

    kinetic energy of random motion in some cases and kinetic energy of orderly motion in other

Correct Answer: A
Explanation:

As we know that when the temperature increases vibration of molecules about their mean position increases hence the kinetic energy associated with random motion of molecules increases.

Question (7)
QN0035789

The radius of a metal sphere at room temperature  is  and the coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is . The sphere heated a little by a temperature  so that its new temperature is . The increase in the volume of the sphere is approximately.

  • (A)

  • (B)

  • (C)

  • (D)

Correct Answer: D
Explanation:

Let the radius of the sphere is . As the temperature increases radius of the sphere increases as shown.

Original volume

Coefficient of linear expansion

Coefficient of volume expansion

As we know that

By putting the value of , increase in the volume
