$A$ metal ball immersed in alcohol weighs $W_1$ at $0^{\circ}C$ and $W_2$ at $50^{\circ}C$. The coefficient of cubical expansion of the metal $(\gamma)_m$ is less than that of alcohol $(\gamma)_{Al}$. Assuming that the density of the metal is large compared to that of alcohol,it can be shown that:

  • A
    $W_1 > W_2$
  • B
    $W_1 = W_2$
  • C
    $W_1 < W_2$
  • D
    any of $(a), (b)$ or $(c)$

$A$ liquid at $30^{\circ} C$ is poured very slowly into a calorimeter at $110^{\circ} C$. The boiling point of the liquid is $80^{\circ} C$. It is observed that the first $5 \ gm$ of the liquid evaporates completely. After adding another $80 \ gm$ of the liquid,the equilibrium temperature is found to be $50^{\circ} C$. What is the ratio of the latent heat of the liquid to its specific heat? [Neglect heat exchange with the surroundings]

The ratio of the coefficient of volume expansion of a glass container to that of a viscous liquid kept inside the container is $1 : 4$. What fraction of the inner volume of the container should the liquid occupy so that the volume of the remaining vacant space will be same at all temperatures?

$A$ copper ring has a diameter of exactly $25 \, mm$ at its temperature of $0^o C$. An aluminium sphere has a diameter of exactly $25.05 \, mm$ at its temperature of $100^o C$. The sphere is placed on top of the ring and the two are allowed to come to thermal equilibrium,with no heat being lost to the surroundings. The sphere just passes through the ring at the equilibrium temperature. The ratio of the mass of the sphere to the ring is: (Given: $\alpha_{Cu} = 17 \times 10^{-6} /^o C$,$\alpha_{Al} = 2.3 \times 10^{-5} /^o C$,specific heat of $Cu = 0.0923 \, cal/g^o C$,and specific heat of $Al = 0.215 \, cal/g^o C$)
