Explain Classification of Wave There are two kinds of wave: Transverse wave Longitudinal wave Transverse wave: A wave will be created in the rope as in the figure (1) Observe…
Define Waves and its Characteristics A stone is thrown on the still water of the pond. When the stone hits the water then the particles of water of that region…
What is Periodic motion and Harmonic Motion? Periodic motion If the motion of a moving particle is such that it passes through a definite point along the path of its motion in…
Explain Fundamental Principle of Calorimetry Principle of Calorimetry: When two bodies of different temperatures are brought in thermal contact then reception and donation of heat take place. The body at…
Relation between Specific Heat and Thermal Capacity We know, the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of a body through 1K is called its heat capacity. Again if the specific…
Define Thermal Capacity and Specific Heat Thermal Capacity The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a body through 1K is called the heat capacity of that body. The…
Explain Dependence of Evaporation on Various Factors Evaporation depends on the following factors: Flow of air: The speed of evaporation increases if the air flows faster over the liquid. The area of…
Differentiate Latent Heat of Fusion and Latent Heat of Vaporization The energy required to change the phase of a substance is known as latent heat. The latent heat of fusion and vaporization both involve the…
Explain Effect of Pressure on Boiling Point As the pressure acts on the surface of contact of the two pieces of ice, the melting point goes down i.e. the melting point becomes…
