Question
Ice starts forming in like with water at 0oC when the temperature is - 10oC. If the taken for 1 cm of ice be 7 hours, then the time taken for the thickness of ice to change from 1 cm 2 cm is : -
Options
A.7 hours
B.14 hours
C.less than 7 hours
D.more than 7 hours
Solution
∵ t ∝ (x22 - x12)
For x1 = 0, x2 = 1 cm
7 ∝ (x2 - x2)
For x1 = 1cm, x2 = 2cm
t ∝ (22 - 12) ⇒
⇒ t = 21 hrs
For x1 = 0, x2 = 1 cm
7 ∝ (x2 - x2)
For x1 = 1cm, x2 = 2cm
t ∝ (22 - 12) ⇒
⇒ t = 21 hrsCreate a free account to view solution
