11.5 (a) For Thermometer A
Triple point of water, T = 273.16 K
At this temperature, the pressure in thermometer A , = 1.250 Pa
Let be the temperature for the normal melting point of sulphur and be the corresponding pressure. It is given, = 1.797 Pa
From Charles' law, we get = , = = = 392.69 K
For Thermometer B
Triple point of water, T = 273.16 K
At this temperature, the pressure in thermometer B , = 0.2 Pa
Let be the temperature for the normal melting point of sulphur and be the co

11.4 (a) The triple point of water has a unique value of 273.16 K, irrespective of pressure and volume. Whereas, melting point of ice and boiling point of water, the temperature value depends on pressure and volume.
(b) The other fixed point on Kelvin scale is 0 K.
(c) The temperature 273.16 K is the triple point of water, it is not the melting point of ice. The melting point of ice is specified in Celsius scale as 0 Hence the absolute temperature in Kelvin scale, is related to temperature in Celsius scale as
(d) Let and be the temperature in Fahrenheit and absolute scale. From the co-rela

11.3 It is given that R = [1 + α(T – )] ………(i)
Where Ro and To are the initial resistance and temperature and R and T are the final resistance and temperature.
At the triple point of water, To = 273.15 K, = 101.6 Ω
At normal melting point of lead, T = 600.5 K, R = 165.5 Ω
Substituting these values in equation (i), we get
165.5 = [1 + α(600.5 – )]
= 1 + 327.35 α, or α = = 1.92
When R = 123.4 Ω, T can be calculated as
123.4 = [1 + 1.92 (T – )]
1.214 = 1 + T1.92 - 1.92 273.15
T = 384.6 K

11.2 Triple point of water on absolute scale A, = 200 A
Triple point of water on absolute scale B, = 350 B
Triple point of water on absolute Kelvin scale, = 273.15 K
The temperature 273.15 K on Kelvin scale is equivalent to 200 on absolute scale A
200 A = 273.15 K, Therefore A =
Similarly B =
If is the triple point of water on scale A and is the triple point of water on scale B, we have
=

11.1 Kelvin and Celsius scales are related as
= - 273.15 ….(i),
Where temperature in Celsius scale and = temperature in Kelvin scale
Celsius and Fahrenheit scales are related as
= , where = temperature in Fahrenheit scale
(a) For Neon, = 24.57. Hence = 24.57 – 273.15 = -248.58 degree Celsius
= = -415.44 degree Fahrenheit
(b) For Carbon dioxide, = 216.55. Hence = 216.55 – 273.15 = -56.6 degree Celsius
= = -69.88 degree Fahrenheit

Let be the angle made by the radius vector joining the bead and the centre of the wire with the downward direction. Let, N be the normal reaction.
mg = N …….(1)
mr = N ……(2)
m(R ) = N
Hence N = m(R)
Substituting the value on N in eqn (1)
mg = mR
or = g/ R ………(3)
As 1, the bead will remain at the lowermost point
g/ R
For = becomes
= g/ R
=(g/R)(R/2g) = ½

Mass of the man, m = 70 kg
Radius of the drum, r = 3 m
Coefficient of friction between the wall and his clothing, = 0.15
Number of revs of hollow cylindrical drum = 200 rev/min = 200/60 rev/s = 3.33 rev/s
The centripetal force required is provided by the normal N of the wall on the man
N = m = m R
When the floor revolves, the man sticks to the wall of the drum. Hence, the weight of the man (mg) acting downwards is balanced by the frictional force acting vertically upwards.
The man will not fall, if
mg
mg )
= 10/ (3 0.15)

When the motorcyclist is at the uppermost point of the death well, the normal reaction R on the motorcyclist by the ceiling of the chamber acts downwards. His weight mg also acts downwards. The outward centrifugal force acting on the motorcyclist is balanced by two forces.
R + mg = m , where v is the velocity and m is the combined mass of the motorcycle and motorcyclist
Because of the balance between the forces, the motorcyclist does not fall.
The minimum speed required at the uppermost position to perform a vertical loop is given by R = 0 in the above equation.
So mg = m or v = = = 15.8 m/s

Speed of revolution of the disc, n = rev/min = 100/3 rpm = 100/ (3
Angular acceleration = 2 = 2 = 3.492 rad/s
The coins revolve with the disc. The centripetal force is provided by the frictional force …. (1)
As v = r , the above equation becomes mr
r
r (0.15 = 12 cm
For coin A, r = 4 cm
The condition (r 12 ) is satisfied for the coin placed at r = 4 cm, so coin A will revolve with the disc.
The condition (r 12 ) is not satisfied for the coin placed at r = 14 cm, so coin B will not revolve with the disc.

Force on the box, F = MA = 40 2 N = 80 N
Frictional force, Ff = = 0.15 60 N
Net force = F – Ff = 80 – 60 = 20 N
From the equation F = ma, we get the backward acceleration produced in the box
a = 20/40 = 0.5 m/s2
From the equation s = ut + , to travel s = 5 m by the box to fall off from the truck, we get
5 = 0 + 0.5
5 = 0.25 , t = 4.47 s
The travel of truck during t = 4.47 s is
= 0 + 0.5 = 0.5 = 19.98 m
