प्रश्न
Two absolute scales A and B have triple points of water defined to be 200 A and 350 B. What is the relation between TA and TB?
उत्तर १
Triple point of water on absolute scaleA, T1 = 200 A
Triple point of water on absolute scale B, T2 = 350 B
Triple point of water on Kelvin scale, TK = 273.15 K
The temperature 273.15 K on Kelvin scale is equivalent to 200 A on absolute scale A.
T1 = TK
200 A = 273.15 K
`:.A = 273.15/200`
The temperature 273.15 K on Kelvin scale is equivalent to 350 B on absolute scale B.
T2 = TK
350 B = 273.15
`:.B= 273.15/350`
TA is triple point of water on scale A.
TB is triple point of water on scale B.
`:. (273.15)/200 xx T_A = (273.15)/350 xx T_B`
`T_A = 200/350 T_B`
Therefore, the ratio TA : TB is given as 4 : 7.
उत्तर २
As we know, triple point of water on absolute scale = 273.16 K, Size of one degree of kelvin scale on absolute scale A
`= 273.16/200`
Value of temperature `T_A` on absolute scale A
`= 273.16/200 T_A`
Value of temperature `T_B` on absolute scale B
`= 273.16/350 T_B`
Since `T_A " and " T_B` represent the same temperature
`:. 273.16/200T_A = 273.16/350T_B`
or ` T_A = 200/350T_B = 4/7 T_B`

Answer the following:
The triple-point of water is a standard fixed point in modern thermometry. Why? What is wrong in taking the melting point of ice and the boiling point of water as standard fixed points (as was originally done in the Celsius scale)?
A brass wire 1.8 m long at 27 °C is held taut with little tension between two rigid supports.

Co-efficient of linear expansion of brass = 2.0 × 10–5 K–1; Young’s modulus of brass = 0.91 × 1011 Pa.
In defining the ideal gas temperature scale, it is assumed that the pressure of the gas at constant volume is proportional to the temperature T. How can we verify whether this is true or not? Do we have to apply the kinetic theory of gases? Do we have to depend on experimental result that the pressure is proportional to temperature?

A cube of iron (density = 8000 kg m−3, specific heat capacity = 470 J kg−1 K−1) is heated to a high temperature and is placed on a large block of ice at 0°C.
