Solution
Ans.1.(b)
Exp. If the doors of a refrigerator are left open for a few hours, the room temperature will increase as heat is merely recycled from the room into the refrigerator and then back into the room. Thus, a net room temperature would increase from the heat of the motor that would be constantly running to move energy around in a circle.
Ans.2.(c)
Exp. Thermostat is a device which automatically regulates the temperature of a system. As the word suggests. Thermostat = Termo + stat i.e., keeping temperature (Thermo) Constant (static)
Ans.3.(a)
Exp.Desert coolers are based on the simple principle of hot air replacement where unsaturated air comes in contact with water leading to evaporation of water. In the process, the moisture content of air increases, while its temperature decreases. The resulting cold but moist air is used for providing cooling.
Ans.4.(b)
Exp. When water is heated from 0°C to 4°C, its volume decreases. Density =
Density of water is maximum at 4°C.
Ans.5.(d)
Exp. Heat detectors in human skin are sensitive to wavelengths < 400 nm.
Ans.6.(a)
Exp. The pressure cooker works on the principle of Gay-Lusaac’s Law which states that at constant volume, pressure is directly proportional to temperature. So when we heat the cooker, the inside temperature increases, thereby increasing the pressure and thus, cooking the food faster.
Ans.7.(d)
Exp.When water is heated from 0°C to 10°C then the volume of water first decreses and then increases. This is because water contracts on heating from 0°C to 4°C while expands from 4°C onwards.
Ans.8.(b)
Exp.There are several zones within a non-luminous flame with each zone having a different temperature. The outer most zone of the flame is blue in colour and it is hottest part. This is due to complete combustion. The middle zone is moderately not and yellow in colour as partial combustion occur in this zone while the innermost zone is the least not and black in colour due to presence of unburned wax vapours.
Ans.9.(d)
Exp.In evening, the radiation from the sun travel larger distance through atmosphere that’s why evening sun is not as hot as the mid day sun.
Ans.10.(d)
Exp. A fan produces a feeling of comfort during hog weather because our perspiration evaporates rapidly.
