Mr. X was advised by an architect to make outer walls of his house with hollow bricks . The correct reason is that such walls (a) make the building stronger (b) Help keeping inside cooler in summer and warmer in winter (c ) Prevent seepage of moisture from outside (d) Protect the building from lightning

A particle of mass m is trapped between two perfectly rigid parallel walls. The particle bounces back and forth between the walls without losing any energy. From a wave point of view, the particle trapped between the walls is like a standing wave in a stretched string between the walls. Distance between the two walls is L. (a) Calculate the energy difference between third energy state and the ground state (lowest energy state) of the particle. (b) Calculate the ground state energy if the mass of the particle is m = 1 mg and separation between the walls is L = 1 cm .

The Eskimo makes his house i.e. Igloo from ice. What is the reason for this?

An ordinary refrigerator is thermally equivalent to a box of corkboard 90 mm thick and 5.6 m^2 in inner surface area. When the door is closed, the inside wall is kept, on the average, 22.2^@C below the temperature of the outside wall. If the motor of the refrigerator runs 15% of the time while the door is closed, at what rate must heat be taken from the interior whicle the motor is running? The thermal conductivity of corkboard is k=0.05 W//mK .

In Fig., a container is shown to have a movable (without friction) piston on top. The container and the piston are all made of perfectly insulating material allowing no heat transfer between outside and inside the container. The container is divided into two compartments by a rigid partition made of a thermally conducting material that allows slow transfer of heat. the lower compartment of the container is filled with 2 moles of an ideal monoatomic gas at 700 K and the upper compartment is filled with 2 moles of an ideal diatomic gas at 400 K. the heat capacities per mole of an ideal monoatomic gas are C_(upsilon) = (3)/(2) R and C_(P) = (5)/(2) R , and those for an ideal diatomic gas are C_(upsilone) = (5)/(2) R and C_(P) = (7)/(2) R. Now consider the partition to be free to move without friction so that the pressure of gases in both compartments is the same. the total work done by the gases till the time they achieve equilibrium will be
