$A$ thermocouple develops $40\,\mu V/K$. If the hot and cold junctions are at $40\,^{\circ}C$ and $20\,^{\circ}C$ respectively,then the emf developed by a thermopile using $150$ such thermocouples in series shall be ............... $mV$.

It is known that wax contracts on solidification. If molten wax is taken in a large vessel and it is allowed to cool slowly,then

Water falls from a height of $500\,m$. The rise in temperature of the water at the bottom,assuming all energy remains in the water,will be ........ $^oC$ [Specific heat of water = $4.2\,kJ/kg\cdot K$]

The top of a lake gets frozen at a place where the surrounding air is at a temperature of $-20\,^oC$. Then

One $kg$ of water, at $20, ^oC$, is heated in an electric kettle whose heating element has a mean (temperature averaged) resistance of $20, \Omega$. The rms voltage in the mains is $200, V$. Ignoring heat loss from the kettle, the time taken for water to evaporate fully is close to.......... $min$. [Specific heat of water $= 4200, J/kg, ^oC$, Latent heat of water $= 2260, kJ/kg$]

$A$ water cooler of storage capacity $120$ litres can cool water at a constant rate of $P$ watts. In a closed circulation system (as shown schematically in the figure),the water from the cooler is used to cool an external device that generates constantly $3 \text{ kW}$ of heat (thermal load). The temperature of water fed into the device cannot exceed $30^{\circ}\text{C}$ and the entire stored $120$ litres of water is initially cooled to $10^{\circ}\text{C}$. The entire system is thermally insulated. The minimum value of $P$ (in watts) for which the device can be operated for $3$ hours is (Specific heat of water is $4.2 \text{ kJ kg}^{-1} \text{K}^{-1}$ and the density of water is $1000 \text{ kg m}^{-3}$)
