The only possibility of heat flow in a thermos flask is through its cork,which is $75 \ cm^2$ in area and $5 \ cm$ thick. Its thermal conductivity is $0.0075 \ cal/(cm \cdot s \cdot ^\circ C)$. The outside temperature is $40^\circ C$ and the latent heat of fusion of ice is $80 \ cal/g$. The time taken by $500 \ g$ of ice at $0^\circ C$ in the flask to melt into water at $0^\circ C$ is ....... $hr$.

$A$ black body radiates maximum energy at wavelength $\lambda$ and its emissive power is $E$. Now, due to a change in the temperature of that body, it radiates maximum energy at wavelength $\frac{2 \lambda}{3}$. At that temperature, the emissive power is:

What are the modes of heat transfer due to a temperature difference?

Power radiated by a black body at temperature $T_1$ is $P$ and it radiates maximum energy at a wavelength $\lambda_1$. If the temperature of the black body is changed from $T_1$ to $T_2$, it radiates maximum energy at a wavelength $\frac{\lambda_1}{2}$. The power radiated at $T_2$ is (in $P$)

Three identical rods $AB$,$CD$ and $PQ$ are joined as shown. $P$ and $Q$ are midpoints of $AB$ and $CD$ respectively. Ends $A, B, C$ and $D$ are maintained at $0^{\circ} C, 100^{\circ} C, 30^{\circ} C$ and $60^{\circ} C$ respectively. The direction of heat flow in $PQ$ is

$A$ hot black body emits energy at the rate of $16 \ J \ m^{-2} \ s^{-1}$ and its most intense radiation corresponds to $20,000 \ \mathring{A}$. When the temperature of this body is further increased and its most intense radiation corresponds to $10,000 \ \mathring{A}$,then the energy radiated in $J \ m^{-2} \ s^{-1}$ will be
