A thermometer graduated accoding linear scale reads a value `x_(0)` when in contact with boiling water, and `X_(0)s//3` when in contact with ice . What is the temperature of an object in `.^(@)C`, if this thermometer in the contact with the object reads `x_(0)//2`?
The freezing point on a thermometer is marked as 20(0) and the boliling point as 150^(@) . A temperature of 60^(@)C on this thermomemter will be read as
A faulty thermometer reads freezing point and boiling point of water as -5 ^(@)C abd 95^(@)C respectively . What is the correct value of temperature as it reads 60^(@)C on faulty thermometer?
A faulty thermometer reads 5^@ C melting ice and 99^@ C in steam. Find the correct temperature in .^(@) F when this faulty thermometer reads 52^@ C .
Equal masses of ice (at 0^@C) and water are in contact. Find the temperature of water needed to just melt the complete ice.
A constant - volume gas thermometer is used to measure the temperature of an object . When the thermometer is in contact with water at its triple point (273K) the pressure in the thermometer is 8.50 xx10^(4) Pa . When it is contact with the object the pressure is 9.650 xx10^(4) Pa . The real temperature of the object is
A thermometer reading 80^(@)F is taken outside. Five minutes later the thermometer reads 60^(@)F. After another 5 minutes the thermometer reads 50^(0)F. What is the temperature outside?
An ungraduated thermometer of uniform bore is attached to a centimeter scale and is found to read 10.3 cm in melting ice, 26.8 cm in boiling water and 6.5 cm in freezing mixture. Calculate the temperature of the freezing mixture.
