Heat required during state change
L = Q/m

Question 16

Heat transfer modes

Answer 16

Conduction
Convection
Radiation

Question 17

Conduction

Answer 17

Transfer of heat btw adjacent parts of a body due to temperature diff

Question 18

Heat conduction

Answer 18

Time rate of heat flow in a material for a given temp diff

Question 19

Thermal conduction formula

Answer 19

H = KA(T1 - T1)/L, K is thermal conductivity of the material

Question 20

Convection

Answer 20

Heat transfer by actual motion of matter
Only possible in fluids
Can be natural or forced

Question 21

Radiation

Answer 21

Heat transfer without medium

Question 22

Radiant energy

Answer 22

Energy transferred by electromagnetic waves

Answer 26

5.67 × 10^-8 W/m² K⁴

Question 27

Newton’s law of cooling

Answer 27

Rate of loss of heat of a body is directly prop to diff of temp of body & surroundings
-dQ/dt = k(T2 -T1), k is +ve const
