Correct Option: B

In an energy recycling process, $x _ { g }$ of steam at $100 ^ { \circ } C$ becomes water at $100 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C }$ which converts $\mathrm { Yg }$ of ice at $0 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C }$ into water at $100 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C }$ . The ratio XY will be

  1. $\dfrac { 1 } { 3 }$

  2. $\dfrac { 2 } { 3 }$

  3. $3$

  4. $2$


Correct Option: A

The maximum amount of work that can be done by extracting $1J$ of energy from a body at $127^oC$ with an environment at $27^oC$?

  1. $\dfrac{1}{8}J$

  2. $\dfrac{1}{4}J$

  3. $\dfrac{1}{2}J$

  4. $\dfrac{3}{4}J$


Correct Option: A

Which of the following energy conversions take place in a torch?

  1. electrical $\rightarrow$ chemical $\rightarrow$ light

  2. chemical $\rightarrow$ electrical $\rightarrow$ light

  3. electrical $\rightarrow$ light $\rightarrow$ chemical

  4. light $\rightarrow$ chemical $\rightarrow$ electrical


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The chemicalenergy stored in batteries gets transformed into electrical energy through the wires. This then gets transformed into light energy that you see.
