उत्तर
| Heat | Temperature | |
| 1. |
Heat is energy in transit. When two bodies at different temperatures are brought in contact, they exchange heat. OR Heat is the form of energy transferred between two (or more) systems or a system and its surroundings by virtue of their temperature difference. |
Temperature is a physical quantity that defines the thermodynamic state of a system. OR Heat transfer takes place between the body and the surrounding medium until the body and the surrounding medium are at the same temperature. |
| 2. | Heat exchange can be measured with the help of a calorimeter. | Temperature is measured with the help of a thermometer |
| 3. | Heat (being a form of energy) is a derived quantity. | Temperature is a fundamental quantity. |
| 4. | S.I. unit: J (joule) | S.I. unit: K (kelvin) |
| 5. | Dimension: [L2M1T–2 K0] | Dimension: [L0M0T0K1] |

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.
