An iron rod of heat capacity $C$ is heated to temperature $8T_0$. It is then put in a cylindrical vessel of adiabatic walls having two moles of air which can be treated as a diatomic ideal gas at temperature $T_0$ and closed by a movable piston which is also adiabatic. The atmospheric pressure is $P_0$. The cylinder with the piston combined have a heat capacity $2C$. Find the equilibrium temperature. (Assume the temperature of air to be uniform and equal to the vessel at all times).

  • A
    $\left( \frac{8C + 7R}{3C + 7R} \right) T_0$
  • B
    $\left( \frac{10C + 7R}{C + 7R} \right) T_0$
  • C
    $\left( \frac{8C + 7R}{C + 7R} \right) T_0$
  • D
    $\left( \frac{10C + 7R}{3C + 7R} \right) T_0$

$A$ closed bottle containing water at $30^{\circ}C$ is carried to the moon in a spaceship. If it is placed on the surface of the moon,what will happen to the water as soon as the lid is opened?

If $60 \%$ of the kinetic energy of water falling from a $210 \ m$ high waterfall is converted into heat,the rise in temperature of the water at the bottom of the fall is nearly (specific heat of water $= 4.2 \times 10^3 \ J \ kg^{-1} \ K^{-1}$ and $g = 10 \ m/s^2$):

$Assertion :$ In the pressure-temperature $(P-T)$ phase diagram of water,the slope of the melting curve is found to be negative.
$Reason :$ Ice contracts on melting to water.
