The figure shows a glass tube (linear coefficient of expansion is α ) completely filled with a liquid of volume expansion coefficient y. On heating length of the liquid column does not change. Choose the correct relation between γ and α .

The resistance of a resistance thermometer has values 2.71 and 3.70 ohm at 10°C and 100°C. The temperature at which the resistance is 3.26 ohm is

No other thermometer is as suitable as a platinum resistance thermometer to measure temperature in the entire range of

Absolute temperature can be calculated by

\'Stem Correction\' in platinum resistance thermometers are eliminated by the use of

One quality of a thermometer is that its heat capacity should be small. If P is a mercury thermometer, Q is a resistance thermometer and R thermocouple type then

A centigrade and a Fahrenheit thermometer are dipped in boiling water. The water temperature is lowered until the Fahrenheit thermometer registers 140^o. What is the fall in temperature as registered by the Centigrade thermometer

Mercury boils at 367°C. However, mercury thermometers are made such that they can measure temperature up to 500°C. This is done by

What is rise in temperature of a collective drop when initially 1 gm and 2 gm drops travel with velocities 10 cm/sec and 15 cm/sec?

When a bimetallic strip is heated, it
