(a)
Radiation
(b)
Conduction
(c)
Convection
(d)
Both B and C
[Answer: (a) Radiation]
5.

is minimized is
(a)
solar cell
(b)
solar cooker
(c)
thermometer
(d)
thermos flask
[Answer: (d) Thermos flask]
II. Fill in the blanks :
1. The
fastest mode of heat transfer is radiation
.
2.
During
day time, air blows from sea
to land .
3. Liquids
and gases are generally poor
conductors of heat.
4. The
fixed temperature at which matter changes state from solid to liquid is called melting point .
III. Assertion and reason type questions :
Mark the correct choice as:
(a)
If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of
assertion.
(b)
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation
of assertion.
(c)
If assertion is true but reason is false.
(d)
If assertion is false but reason is true.
1. Assertion : Food can be cooked faster in
vessels with copper bottom.
Reason : Copper is the best conductor of heat.
(a) If both assertion and reason
are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
(b)
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation
of assertion.
(c)
If assertion is true but reason is false.
(d)
If assertion is false but reason is true.
[Answer: (a) Both
assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of
assertion]
2. Assertion : Maximum sunlight reaches earth’s
surface during the noon time.
Reason : Heat from the sun reaches earth’s surface by
radiation.
(a)
If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of
assertion.
(b) If both assertion and reason
are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
(c)
If assertion is true but reason is false.
(d)
If assertion is false but reason is true.
[Answer: (b) Both
assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion]
Reason : When the sun is at its highest point, the
earth's surface absorbs more heat and retains. This heat is slowly radiated out
causing increase in temperature.
3. Assertion : When water is heated up to 100°
C, there is no raise in temperature until all water gets converted into water
vapour.
Reason : Boiling point of water is 10° C.
(a)
If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of
assertion.
(b)
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation
of assertion.
(c) If assertion is true but
reason is false.
(d)
If assertion is false but reason is true.
[Answer: (c) Assertion is
true but reason is false]
Reason : When a substance changes from one state to
another, a considerable amount of heat energy is absorbed or liberated. This
energy is called latent heat.
