    Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R Assertion A : A diode under reverse- biased condition provides very small current which is nearly independent of voltage until a critical limit at which the current increases drastically. Reason R : Below the critical voltage limit, only majority charge carriers flow which increases drastically above critical voltage. Choose the correct answer from the options given below.

  4. Question 4

    Thermal Properties of Matter. Asked once: 22 Jan 2025

    6
    An amount of ice of mass 10−3 kg10^{- 3}\text{ }kg and temperature −10∘C-10^{\circ}C is transformed to vapour of temperature 110∘C110^{\circ}C by applying heat. The total amount of work required for this conversion is, (Take, specific heat of ice =2100Jkg−1 K−1= 2100Jkg^{- 1}{\text{ }K}^{- 1}, specific heat of water =4180Jkg−1 K−1= 4180Jkg^{- 1}{\text{ }K}^{- 1}, specific heat of steam =1920Jkg−1 K−1= 1920Jkg^{- 1}{\text{ }K}^{- 1}, Latent heat of ice =3.35×105Jkg−1= 3.35 \times10^{5}Jkg^{- 1} and Latent heat of steam =2.25×106Jkg−1= 2.25 \times10^{6}Jkg^{- 1} )

    14
    One mole of an ideal diatomic gas expands from volume V to 2 V isothermally at a temperature 27∘C27^{\circ}C and does W joule of work. If the gas undergoes same magnitude of expansion adiabatically from 27∘C27^{\circ}C doing the same amount of work W, then its final temperature will be (close to) ____\_\_\_\_  ∘C\ ^{\circ}C.
