Why does the mercury level of thermometer rise up when it is placed in hot water and fall down when it is placed in cold water? |
|
Answer» 1. We know that bodies which are in contact achieve thermal equilibrium due to transfer of heat energy. 2. If we keep thermometer in hot water, its mercury level rises because heat is transformed from hot body to cold body. 3. Similarly, we observe that mercury level comes down when it is placed in cold water. |

Why do we use white clothes in summer and dark or black clothes in winter? |
|
Answer» 1. White clothes do not absorb heat, so in summer, weather is very hot and white clothes protect us from heat whereas in winter it is very cold so we need more heat. 2. Dark or black clothes absorb more heat so we get protection from cold. |
|
| 792. |
Why do we prefer to wear white or light coloured clothes in summer and black or dark coloured clothes in winter ? |
|
Answer» We prefer to wear white clothes in summer. The reason is that the white clothes reflects most of the sun’s heat and absorb very little of the sun’s heat, thus they keep our body cool. We prefer to wear black and dark coloured clothes in winter. The reason is that the black or dark colour clothes absorb most of the sun’s heat and keep our body warm. |
|

Take hot water in a cup and put a silver spoon in it. Leave the spoon inside the water for some time. Now touch the end of the spoon. Do you feel the heat? |
|
Answer» 1. Yes, we feel hot. 2. It is because heat in the hot water is transferred from one end to other end of the spoon. 3. In solid substances such as silver spoon, atoms are arranged very closely. 4. So heat transfer takes place from the higher temperature region to lower temperature region. 5. This is due to conduction. |
