Statement- 1 : When an electric fan is switched on in a closed room, the air of the room is cooled. Statement- 2 : When fan is switched on, the speed of the air molecules will increase.

Assertion: A room can be cooled by opening the door of a refrigerator in a closed room. Reason: Heat flows from lower temperature to higher temperature.

Atul buit a small house . He used well - insulated copper wires of good quality for wiring and switches, sockets and plugs too . He however , had a room - heater of poor quality . Once on a winter night he was sleepoing with his family in a closed room with the heater On. During sleep he was suffocated . Hence he woke up and found flames of heater on fire . His son Raghav got up quickly and switched off the main switch . He made a call to the fire brigade . The fire crew of fire brigade reached quickly and put off fire . Atul and his family thanked the firement . How Atul.s heater was on fire ?

Decrease in temperature is noticed by sprinkling water in closed room. Because,

A cylindrical solid of mass 10^(-2) kg and cross-sectional area 10^(-4) m^(2) is moving parallel to its axis (the x-axis ) with a uniform speed of 10^(3) m//s in the positive direction. At t = 0 , its front face passes the plane x = 0 . The region to the right of htis plane is filled with the dust particle of uniform density 10^(-3) kg/m^(3) . When a dust particles collides with the face of the cylinder, it stricks to its surface. Assuming that the dimensions of the cylinder remain parctically unchanged adn that the dust sticks only to the front face of the cylinder find the x-coordinate of the front of th ecylinder at t = 150 s .
