उत्तर
4 oC
The density of water is maximum at 4 oC, and the water at the bottom of the lake is most dense, compared to the layers of water above. Therefore, the temperature expected at the bottom is 4oC.

A resistance thermometer reads R = 20.0 Ω, 27.5 Ω, and 50.0 Ω at the ice point (0°C), the steam point (100°C) and the zinc point (420°C), respectively. Assuming that the resistance varies with temperature as Rθ = R0 (1 + αθ + βθ2), find the values of R0, α and β. Here θ represents the temperature on the Celsius scale.
A pendulum clock shows correct time at 20°C at a place where g = 9.800 m s–2. The pendulum consists of a light steel rod connected to a heavy ball. It is taken to a different place where g = 9.788 m s–1. At what temperature will the clock show correct time? Coefficient of linear expansion of steel = 12 × 10–6 °C–1.

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.
