Answer» Given : ∠1 = ∠3 ∠3 = ∠4 ∠2 = ∠4 ∴∠1 = ∠2 ∵Both ∠1 and ∠2 are equal to ∠4. (By Euclid’s axiom things which are equal to same things are equal to one another) |
|
| 27219. |
Why is Axiom 5, in the list of Euclid’s axioms, considered a ‘universal truth’? (Note that the question is not about the fifth postulate.) |
|
Answer» Axiom 5 states that the whole is greater than the part. This axiom is known as a universal truth because it holds true in any field, and not just in the field of mathematics. Let us take two cases − one in the field of mathematics, and one other than that. Case I Let t represent a whole quantity and only a, b, c are parts of it. t = a + b + c Clearly, t will be greater than all its parts a, b, and c. Therefore, it is rightly said that the whole is greater than the part. Case II Let us consider the continent Asia. Then, let us consider a country India which belongs to Asia. India is a part of Asia and it can also be observed that Asia is greater than India. That is why we can say that the whole is greater than the part. This is true for anything in any part of the world and is thus a universal truth. |

Why is specific heat capacity taken as a measure of thermal inertia? |
|
Answer» We have H = ms Δθ or Δθ = (H/ms). It follows that if s is more, Δθ will be small (for given values of H and m). Thus, for a given body, its specific heat capacity determines the change in temperature produced by a given quantity of heat. It is thus like mass in mechanics which determines the change in velocity (or the acceleration) produced by a given force. It is quite appropriate, therefore, to regard specific heat capacity as a measure of thermal inertia. because at that time any suastance get start heated up and melts. |
|
| 27242. |

Discuss how high specific heat capacity of water helps in formation of land and sea breeze. |
|
Answer» Specific heat capacity of land is 5 times less as compared to water. Thus, air above land becomes hot and light and rises up resulting in drop in pressure of land mass during day time. Thus, cool air from sea starts blowing towards and forming sea breeze. During night, land as well as sea radiates heat energy. However, temperature of land falls faster than sea water, because of high specific heat capacity of sea water. So, at night the temperature of sea water is more than land. Warm air above the sea rises and cold air from land starts blowing towards sea resulting in land breeze. |

An equal quantity of heat is supplied to two substances A and B. The substance A shows a greater rise in temperature. What can you say about the heat capacity of A as compared to that of B? |
|
Answer» Heat capacity of substance B is more than substance A. it is because of weak intermolecular force between bonds of substance A. |

Why does the heat supplied to a substance during its change of state not cause any rise in its temperature? |
|
Answer» During the state change heat supplied increases potential energy of molecules as distance between molecules increases work is done by heat supplied against attractive force. |

Which contains more heat: 1g water at 100°C or 1g steam at 100°C? Give reason. |
|
Answer» 1g steam at 100°C contains more heat than 1g water at 100°C. The reason is that lg steam at 100°C, when converts to 1 g water at 100°C, liberates 2260 J heat. |
