प्रश्न

The farmers fill their fields with water in winter. Give reason.

टीपा लिहा

उत्तर

The farmers fill their fields with water in winter to protect the crops from frost because water due to its high specific heat capacity does not allow the temperature in the surrounding area of plants to fall below 0°C.

Write the expression for the heat energy Q received by the substance when m kg of substance of specific heat capacity c Jkg-1 k-1 is heated through Δt° C.


State three ways to minimize the global warming.


A certain amount of heat Q will warm 1 g of material X by 3°C and 1 g of material Y by 4°C. Which material has a higher specific heat capacity?


The temperature of a lead piece of mass 400 g rises from 20°C to 50°C when 1560 J of heat is supplied to it. Calculate: Heat capacity of lead piece.


How much heat energy is released when 5 g of water at 20° C changes to ice at 0° C?
[Specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J g-1 ° C-1 Specific latent heat of fusion of ice = 336 J g-1]


50 g of copper is heated to increase its temperature by 10° C. If the same quantity of heat is given to 5 g water, the rise in its temperature is [Specific heat of copper = 420 joule-kg-1 °C-1 , specific heat of water = 4200 joule-kg-I °C-1]


Which of the following substances (A, B and C) has the highest specific beat?


J/Kg °C is the unit of specific heat capacity.


Match the following

2. Calorimeter b. Lavoisier and Simon
3. Vacuum flask c. J Kg-1 K-1
4. Ice – calorimeter d. Heat capacity

We would like to make a vessel whose volume does not change with temperature (take a hint from the problem above). We can use brass and iron `(β_(vbrass) = (6 xx 10^(–5))/K and β_(viron) = (3.55 xx 10^(–5))/K)` to create a volume of 100 cc. How do you think you can achieve this.
