MCQ
A sphere, a cube and a thin circular plate all made of same material and having the same mass are heated to same temperature of $200^{\circ} C$. When these are left in a room
  • A
    the sphere reaches room temperature fast.
  • B
    the cube reaches room temperature fast.
  • the circular plate reaches room temperature fast.
  • D
    all will reach the room temperature simultaneously.

Answer

Correct option: C.
the circular plate reaches room temperature fast.
(c) :For a given volume, surface area is maximum for the circular plate and minimum for the sphere, so, circular plate reaches room temperature fast.

Assertion: For a observer looking out through the window of a fast moving train, the nearby objects appear to move in the opposite direction to the train, while the distant objects appear to be stationary.
Reason: If the observer and the object are moving at velocities $\vec{v}_1$ and $\overrightarrow{v_2}$ respectively with reference to a laboratory frame, the velocity of the object with respect to the observer is $\overrightarrow{v_1}-\overrightarrow{v_2}$
