Some heat is developed in a uniform metallic wire across the ends of which a constant voltage V is applied. The heat developed will be tripled if
- A the radius of the wire is tripled
- B the length of the wire is tripled
- C both the radius and the length of the wire are reduced to one-third
- D both the radius and the length of the wire are tripled
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) both the radius and the length of the wire are tripled
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(P = \frac{V^2}{R}\) \(R = \rho \frac{L}{A} = \rho \frac{L}{\pi r^2}\) \(P = \frac{V^2}{\rho L / (\pi r^2)} = \frac{V^2 \pi r^2}{\rho L}\) \(P \propto \frac{r^2}{L}\) If radius \(r\) is tripled (\(3r\)) and length \(L\) is tripled (\(3L\)):…

Alcohols and phenols are formed when a hydrogen atom in a hydrocarbon, aliphatic and aromatic respectively is replaced by -OH group. These are further classified on the basis of number of hydroxy groups and according to the hybridization of the carbon atom \(sp ^2\) or \(sp ^3\) to which the -OH group is attached. They find applications in industry as well as in day-to-day life. One of the most commercially obtained alcohol also known as wood spirit is obtained by destructive distillation of wood. Both alcohols and phenols are acidic in nature. The acidity of alcohols and phenols vary according to the nature of substituent(s) attached to them. Alcohols and phenols react with carboxylic acids, acid chlorides and acid anhydrides to form esters. Introduction of acetyl group in alcohols and phenols is called acetylation. Phenol undergo electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction because the -OH activates the benzene ring. It undergoes nitration, halogenation and sulphonation reactions.
When phenol is treated with concentrated sulphuric acid, then it gets converted into phenol-2,4-disulphonic acid \(( X )\). On further treatment of X with conc. nitric acid, product Y is formed. Identify Y .CUET 2025 Hard
