A concrete slab has a length of 10 m on a winter night when the temperature is 0°C. Find the length of the slab on a summer day when the temperature is 35°C. The coefficient of linear expansion of concrete is 1.0 × 10–5 °C–1.

उत्तर
Given:
Length of the slab when the temperature is 0°C, L0 = 10 m
Temperature on the summer day, t = 35 °C
Let L1 be the length of the slab on a summer day when the temperature is 35°C.
The coefficient of linear expansion of concrete, α = 1 ×10–5 °C-1
\[L_1 = L_0 \left( 1 +∝t\right)\]
\[\Rightarrow L_1\] = 10 (1 + 10–5 × 35)
\[\Rightarrow L_1\] = 10 + 35 × 10–4
\[\Rightarrow L_1\] = 10.0035 m
So, the length of the slab on summer day when the temperature is 35oC is 10.0035 m.

An earthen pitcher loses 1 gm of water per minute due to evaporation. If the water equivalent of the pitcher is 0.5 kg and the pitcher contains 9.5 kg of water, calculate the time required for the water in a pitcher to cool to 28°C from the original temperature of 30°C. Neglect radiation effects. The latent heat of vaporization in this range of temperature is 580 Cal/gm and the specific heat of water is 1 Cal/gm°C.
