Question
A source of heat supplies heat at a constant rate to a solid cube. The variation of the temperature of the cube with the heat supplied is shown in the fig. The slope of the part $S T$ of the graph represents : (a) the latent heat of the vapour(b) the specific heat of the vapour(c) the thermal capacity of the vapour(d) the reciprocal of the thermal capacity
Step 1
Mathematically, this can be represented as the ratio of change in temperature ($\Delta T$) to the change in heat supplied ($\Delta Q$). So, the slope is given by: \[ \text{Slope} = \frac{\Delta T}{\Delta Q} \] Show more…
