As this is an isolated container, we know that the heat transfer with the environment is zero. Since the specific latent heat of ice is a magnitude bigger than the specific heat of water, the container wi...

The Schwarzschild radius of the sun can be calculated using Rs= (2GM)/c². Substitute in the mass of the sun (M=210³⁰), the speed of light (c=310⁸), and the univer...

As the potential difference across the filament lamp increases the current across the lamp also increases due to Ohm's law.The increase in current flow also causes the lamp to heat up which causes the res...

Newtons first law states that is an object is moving it will continue to do so in a constant direction and uniform velocity unless acted upon by an external force.Newtons second law states that the change...

Heat is lost in the fluid through Conduction convection radiation and evaporation. The silvered surfaces reflect infrared rays back into the liquid keeping heat in the fluid reducing heat lost by radiatio...
