Assertion (A): |
Houses made of concrete roofs overlaid with foam keep the room hotter during |
Reason (R): |
The layer of foam insulation prohibits heat transfer, as it contains air pockets. |

A cup of coffee cools from \(90^{\circ}\text{C}\) \(80^{\circ}\text{C}\) in \(t\) minutes, when the room temperature is \(20^{\circ}\text{C}.\) The time taken by a similar cup of coffee to cool from \(80^{\circ}\text{C}\) \(60^{\circ}\text{C}\) at room temperature same at \(20^{\circ}\text{C}\) is:
1. \(\frac{10}{13}t\)
2. \(\frac{5}{13}t\)
3. \(\frac{13}{10}t\)
4. \(\frac{13}{5}t\)

We consider the radiation emitted by the human body. Which of the following statements is true:
1. | The radiation emitted is in the infrared region |
2. | The radiation is emitted only during the day |
3. | The radiation is emitted during the summers and absorbed during the winters |
4. | The radiation emitted lies in the ultraviolet region and hence is not visible |
A cylindrical rod has temperatures at its ends. The rate of flow of heat is cal/sec. If all the linear dimensions are doubled while keeping the temperature constant, then the rate of flow of heat will be:
