प्रश्न
A thin rod having length L0 at 0°C and coefficient of linear expansion α has its two ends maintained at temperatures θ1 and θ2, respectively. Find its new length.
उत्तर
Consider the diagram
θ = `(θ_1 + θ_2)/2`
Let temperature varies linearly in the rod from one end to the other ends. Let θ be the temperature of the mid-point of the rod. At steady state.
Rate of flow of heat,
`((dQ)/dt) = (KA (θ_1 - θ))/(L_0/2) = (KA(θ - θ_2))/(L_0/2)`
Where K is the coefficient of thermal conductivity of the rod
or ⇒ `θ_1 - θ = θ - θ_2`
or ⇒ θ = `(θ_1 + θ_2)/2`
Using relation, `L = L_0 (1 + αθ)`
or `L = L_0 [1 + θ((θ_1 + θ_2)/2)]`

Following Figure shows water in a container having 2.0 mm thick walls made of a material of thermal conductivity 0.50 W m−1°C−1. The container is kept in a melting-ice bath at 0°C. The total surface area in contact with water is 0.05 m2. A wheel is clamped inside the water and is coupled to a block of mass M as shown in the figure. As the block goes down, the wheel rotates. It is found that after some time a steady state is reached in which the block goes down with a constant speed of 10 cm s−1 and the temperature of the water remains constant at 1.0°C. Find the mass M of the block. Assume that the heat flows out of the water only through the walls in contact. Take g = 10 m s−2.

According to Stefan’s law of radiation, a black body radiates energy σT4 from its unit surface area every second where T is the surface temperature of the black body and σ = 5.67 × 10–8 W/m2K4 is known as Stefan’s constant. A nuclear weapon may be thought of as a ball of radius 0.5 m. When detonated, it reaches temperature of 106 K and can be treated as a black body.
