d. Sonam wanted to take bath. He heated 5 g of water at 450C. How much cold water at 50C will be [2]
needed to make the final temperature to 150C?
Solution:

Hot – Water Cold- Water.

M1= 5g M2=?
2 Ɵ1= 450C Ɵ1= 50C
Ɵ2 = 150C Ɵ2= 150C 0.5
C1= 4.2 Jg-1 0C-1 C2= 4.2 Jg-1 0C-1

By Principle of Calorimetry
 Heat- Loss (Hot- Water) = Heat- Gain (Cold - Water)

M1C1(Ɵ2‫ ־‬Ɵ1) = M2C2(Ɵ2‫ ־‬Ɵ1) 0.5

M2 = M1C1(Ɵ2‫ ־‬Ɵ1) / C2(Ɵ2‫ ־‬Ɵ1)

Since, C1= C2= 4.2 Jg-1 0C-1 (Cancelled) 0.5

M2 = M1(Ɵ2‫ ־‬Ɵ1) / Ɵ2‫ ־‬Ɵ1)

M2 = 5g×45-15)0C / (15-5)0C
M2 = 15 g.
The mass of cold water need is 15 g (Ans) 0.5

e. Karma could easily hear her echo when she shouted in her school’s multipurpose hall. Later she 2
shouted in the same manner in her bed room, but she was not able to hear any echo. Explain.

Ans : One of the conditions for any sound to be echoed, is to have minimum of 17m between
sources of sound and the reflectors. The distance between source of sound and reflector in her 2
bedroom is very less compared to distance in school multipurpose hall. The required distance
was not fulfilled while she shouted in her bedroom. Hence, she was not able to hear any echo.

d. How is SONAR method different from RADAR method?

Ans: SONAR = Sound Navigation and Ranging.
 This method is used to measure the depth of sea by sending 1
Ultrasonic wave from the bottom of the sea with the help of hydrophone. The
wave reflected is received by receiver recording the time, speed of the wave sent.
v ×t
Hence depth is measured using the formula, d = .
2
 Used to detect the presence of objects.

RADAR = Radio Detection and Ranging

 This method is used to measure the distance of moon from the Earth. Radio 1
signal is first sent to the Earth, moon or nearby aircraft and reflected. The
reflected signal is received by the receiver and the time interval for the signal is
noted. The distance is measured the
v ×t
formula, d = .

air. Hence, even though Karma and Lhaden is distanced equal from the source of sound,
Lhaden heard the sound first, as she is in denser medium.
