Question: Answered & Verified by Expert
Two different liquids of same mass are kept in two identical vessels, which are placed in a freezer that extracts heat from them at the same rate causing each liquid to transform into a solid. The schematic figure below shows the temperature $\mathrm{T}$ vs time t plot for the two materials. We denote the specific heat of metrials in the liquid (solid) states to be $\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{L} 1}\left(\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{S} 1}\right)$ and $\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{L} 2}\left(\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{S} 2}\right)$ respectively.

Options:
  • A $C_{L 1} < C_{L 2}$ and $C_{S 1} < C_{S 2}$
  • B $\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{L} 1}>\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{L} 2}$ and $\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{S} 1}>\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{S} 2}$
  • C $\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{L} 1}>\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{L} 2}$ and $\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{S} 1}>\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{S} 2}$
  • D $C_{\mathrm{L} 1} < \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{L} 2}$ and $\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{S} 1}>\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{S} 2}$

The correct answer is: $\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{L} 1}>\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{L} 2}$ and $\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{S} 1}>\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{S} 2}$
Let Refrigerater extract $\mathrm{Q}$ joul/per second
$\text { Q.t } \Rightarrow m s\left(T_{f}-T\right)$
Higher the specific heat, Higher the slope
