Heat is supplied at a rate of 500W
to a pressure cooker containing
water and fitted with a safety
valve.Steam escape such that
water is lost at 12g/min.If the
heat is supplied at 900W,water is
lost at 20g/min.Calculate the
specific latent heat of steam.
How much sweat must evaporate
from the surface of 150kg of human
body to be able to cool the human
by 2°C.(assume C=3.35J/g/K for
human and L=2.5mJ/kg for
water at body temperature)
If a petrol tank costs σ2000.00 to
fill it up at 10°C,how much extra
must I pay to fill up the tank at 50°C
if the petrol costs σ50.00 per litre
and its cubic expansivity is
9.5×10^(−4) K^(−1) ?
The length of mercury column in
a mercury-in-glass thermometer
is 4cm at triple point.What is the
length of the column when the
scale indicates temperature of
560K.
A gas at 17° has the ratio of its initial
to final volume as 25 with initial
pressure of 2×10^5 Nm^(−2) .Calculate
the final pressure and temperature
after compression.(γ=1.5)
Calculate the triple point for an
electrical resistance thermometer,
assuming the ratio of resistance
at the triple point to that at initial
point is 2.0.

A vacuum chamber has a door
with surface dimensions
20cm×20cm.How many 70kg men,
each exerting a pull equal to his
weight,will it take to pull the
door open when the chamber is
evacuated to a pressure of 0.1 atm?
