1.
Aman went for a weekend trip with his parents and grandparents to a remote village. His grandfather showed him the fields and the crops they grow. As they moved forward, they saw that a bullock cart got struck in wet mud and the driver was not able to push it out by himself. Seeing him in distress, Aman ran to his help and together they pushed it out, but iron rim of the wheel came out.
They tried to put it on the wheel but it was smaller than diameter of wheel. Suddenly, he got an idea. He collected some wood and set them on fire and heated the rim and then rim easily slipped on the wheel. Cartman thanked Aman and moved away.
(i) What values of Aman does the incident show?
(ii) If the diameter of the rim and ring were 5.243 m and 5.231 m respectively at 27 \(^{0}\)C. To what temperature had Aman heated the ring so as to fit the rim of the wheel? Coefficient of linear expansion of iron = 1.20 x 10-5 K-1
(iii) Which property of solids is used in this phenomenon?
2.

1.
(i) Aman loves nature and his helpful boy. He also has presence of mind as he thought of an excellent idea to help cartman.
(ii) \({ L }_{ 1 }=5.231m,{ L }_{ 2 }=5.243m,{ T }_{ 1 }=27 ^{0}C,{ T }_{ 2 }=?\)
As we know
\(\therefore { T }_{ 2 }-{ T }_{ 1 }=\frac { { L }_{ 2 }-{ L }_{ 1 } }{ { L }_{ 1 }\times \alpha } \)
\(\\ { T }_{ 2 }=\frac { { L }_{ 2 }-{ L }_{ 1 } }{ { L }_{ 1 }\alpha } \)
\({ T }_{ 2 }=\frac { 5.243-5.231 }{ 5.231\times 1.2\times { 10 }^{ -5 } } +27\)
\(\\ =218 \ ^{0} C\)
(iii) Linear expansion of solids i.e increase in length of solid on heating.
2.
Given, A = 1000 cm2 , L = 0.4 cm
\(\Delta T=T_{ 1 }-T_{ 2 }=37-(-5)=42^{ 0 }C\)
\(\\ K=2.2\times 10^{ -3 }cal\ s^{ -1 }cm^{ -1 }K^{ -1 }\)
Rate of loss heat,
\(\\ H=\frac { Q }{ T } =\frac { KA(T_{ 1 }-T_{ 2 }) }{ L } =\frac { 2.2\times 10^{ -3 }\times 1000\times 42 }{ 0.4 } \)
\(\\ H=231\ cal\ s^{ -1 }\)

20\(\Omega\), 3.8 x 10-3 \(^{0}\)C-1, - 5.6 x 10 -7 \(^{0}\)C-2
5.
The lower layer of earth's atmosphere reflects infra-red radiations from earth back to the surface of the earth. So the heat radiation received by the earth from the sun during del) time are trapped by the atmosphere. Therefore, if the earth did not have atmosphere, its surface would become too cold to tolerate
6.
A body with good reflectivity is a poor absorber of heat and the poor absorbers of heat are poor emitters of thermal radiations
7.
According to Stefan's Law,
Energy emitted per unit time i.e. power
H = A xT4
Here H1 = 450 W, T = T1 and radius r = r1
and H2 = ? T = 2T1 and r = \(\frac { { r }_{ 1 } }{ 2 } \)
\({ H }_{ 1 }=4{ \pi r }_{ 1 }^{ 2 },\sigma { T }_{ 1 }^{ 4 }\)
and \({ H }_{ 2 }=4\pi \left( \frac { { r }_{ 1 } }{ 2 } \right) ^{ 2 }.\sigma \left( 2{ T }_{ 1 } \right) ^{ 2 }\)
Dividing eq (i) by (ii) we get
\(\frac { { H }_{ 1 } }{ { H }_{ 2 } } =\frac { 4\pi { r }_{ 1 }^{ 2 }.\sigma { T }_{ 1 }^{ 4 } }{ 4\pi \left( \frac { { r }_{ 1 } }{ 2 } \right) ^{ 2 }.\sigma (2{ T }_{ 1 })^{ 4 } } \)
\(\Rightarrow\) \(\frac { 450 }{ { H }_{ 2 } } =\frac { { r }_{ 1 }^{ 2 } }{ \frac { { r }_{ 1 }^{ 2 } }{ 4 } } \times \frac { { T }_{ 1 }^{ 4 } }{ 16{ R }_{ 1 }^{ 4 } } \)
\(\Rightarrow\) \(\frac { 450 }{ { H }_{ 2 } } =\frac { 1 }{ 4 } \)
\(\therefore\) \({ H }_{ 2 }=450\times 4=1800w\)
Hence the required power = 1800 W
8.
AS radius of ball, r0 = 9.0 cm = 0.090 m at 00C, hence its
\(Volume,\ \ V_{ 0 }=\frac { 4 }{ 3 } \pi { r }_{ 0 }^{ 3 }=\frac { 4 }{ 3 } \times 3.14\times (0.090)^{ 3 }\)
\(\\ =3.05\times 10^{ -3 }m^{ 3 }\)
\(\\ Again\ as\ \alpha =1.2\times 10^{ -5 }K^{ -1 },\)
\(\\ \therefore \ \gamma =3\alpha \)
\(\\ =3\times 1.2\times 10^{ -5 }=3.6\times 10^{ -5 }K^{ -1 }\)
\(\\ Moreover\ rise\ in\ temperature\)
\(\\ \triangle T=90^{ 0 }C-0^{ 0 }C=90^{ 0 }C=90K\)
\(\\ Increase\ in\ volume,\ \triangle V=V\gamma \triangle T\)
\(\\ =3.05\times 10^{ -3 }\times 3.6\times 10^{ -5 }\times 90\)
\(\\ =9.88\times 10^{ -6 }m^{ 3 }=9.88cm^{ 3 }\)
9.
\(11\times { 10 }^{ 5 }N\)
10.
We know that, speed, \(v\infty \sqrt { T } \)
By formula v = \(\frac { xRT }{ p } \)
Where T is in kelvin
\(\frac { v_{ t } }{ v_{ 0 } } =\sqrt { \frac { 273+t }{ 273+0 } } =3\)
\(\\ \Rightarrow \frac { 273+t }{ 273 } =9\Rightarrow \ t=9\times 273-273=2184^{ 0 }C\)
11.
Let M be the mass of glycerine, its density at 00C, its density at t0C.
\(\gamma =\frac { { V }_{ t }-{ V }_{ 0 } }{ { V }_{ 0 } } =\frac { \frac { M }{ { \rho }_{ t } } -\frac { M }{ { { \rho } }_{ 0 } } }{ (M/{ { \rho } }_{ 0 })\triangle T } \)
\(\\ \gamma =\frac { \frac { 1 }{ { \rho }_{ t } } -\frac { 1 }{ { \rho }_{ 0 } } }{ (1/{ \rho }_{ 0 })\triangle T } =\frac { { \rho }_{ 0 }-{ \rho }_{ t } }{ { \rho }_{ 0 }\triangle t } \)
∴ Fractional change in density
\(\\ \frac { { \rho }_{ 0 }-{ \rho }_{ t } }{ { \rho }_{ 0 } } =\gamma \triangle T\)
\(\\ =49\times 10^{ -5 }\times 30=0.0147\)
12.
Heat carried away from a fire sideways mainly by radiation. Above the fire, heat is carried by both radiation and convection of air. But convection carries much more heat than radiation. So, it is much hotter above a fire than by its sides
13.
The purpose of a coolant is to absorb maximum heat with least rise in its own temperature. This is possible only if specific heat is high because Q = mc \(\Delta \)T. For a given value of m and Q, the rise in temperature \(\Delta \)T will be small if c is large. This will prevent different parts of the nuclear reactor from getting too hot.
14.
As both flasks have same height and capacity, the area of the cylindrical wall will be less than that of the square wall. Hence, the thermos flask of circular cross section will transmit less heat as compared to the thermos flask of square cross section and will be better.
15.
The neck expands but not the stopper due to poor conductivity of glass. Thus, the stopper can be taken out easily.
16.
This is because platinum begins evaporate above 12000C.
17.
Electrons contribute largely both towards the flow of electricity and the flow of heat. A good conductor contains a large number of free electrons. So, it is both a good conductor of heat and electricity.
18.
The two bodies may have different masses and different materials i.e., they may have different thermal capacities. In case the two bodies have equal thermal capacities, they would settle at the mean \(\frac { ({ T }_{ 1 }+{ T }_{ 2 }) }{ 2 } \)
19.
When the birds swell their feathers, they are able to enclose air in the feathers. Air, being a poor conductor of heat, so it prevents the loss of heat from the bodies of the birds to the surroundings and as such they do not feel cold in winter.
