Two heater coils separately take 10 minute and 5 minute to boil certain amount of water . If both the coils are connected in series, the time taken will be

Two heating coils, one of fine wire and the other of thick wire of the same material and of the same length are connected in series and in parallel. Which of the following statement is correct ?

Water at 0^@C was heated until it started to boil and then until it all changed to steam. The time required to heat water from 0^@C to 100^@C is 5 min and the time to change boiling water to steam is 28 minutes. If the flame supplied heat at a constant rate, the specific latent heat of vaporisation of water (neglecting heat losses, container etc. is (in J//g ). (specific heat of water s =4.2 J//g )

310 J of heat is required to rise the temperature of 2 moles of an ideal gas at constant pressure from 25^(@)C to 35^(@)C . The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of the gas through the same range at constant volume, is

50 cal of heat is required to raise the temperature of 1 mole of an ideal gas from 20^@ C to 25^@ C , while the pressure of the gas is kept constant. The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of the same has through same temperature range at constant volume is ( R = 2 cal/mol/K)
