An ideal gas is initially at pressure p and volume V. its pressure is increased by dp, so that its volume decreases by dV, while temperatures remains constant. Here B=-1/V(dV)/(dP) .What will be the nature of the graph between B and p?

A U-tube with limbs A and B of equal length is closed at the top of B. Mercury is now poured gradually into the limb A, so that air gets trapped in B, it is found that when the mercury level reaches the top of A, the level in B reaches half its height. The external pressure is 1 atm. What is the length of the limb, A ? Neglect the volume of the connecting tube.

A wire of length 1 m and radius 10^(-3) m is carrying a heavy current and is assumed to radiate as a black body. At equilibrium its temperature is 900 K while that of the surroundings is 300 K. The resistivity of the material of the wire at 300 K is pi^2xx10^(-8)Omega-m and its temperature coefficient of resistance is 7.8xx10^(-3)per@_C (Stefan's constant =5.68xx10^(-8)W-m^2-K^4) . So, the current in the wire is

A man has an antique pendulum clock of 1832 which bears the signature of the purchaser. He does not want to replace it in the fond memory of his great-grandparents. It ticks off one second in each side to side swing. It keeps correct time at 20^(@)C . The pendulum shaft is made of steel and its mass can be ignored as compared to the mass of the bob. Linear expansion coefficient of steel is 1.2xx10^(-5@)C^(-1) How closely must the temperature be controlled so that it does not gain or lose more than a second in a day?
