$A$ heater supplying constant power $P$ watts is switched $ON$ at time $t=0$ to raise the temperature of a liquid kept in a calorimeter of negligible heat capacity. $A$ student records the temperature of the liquid $T(t)$ at equal time intervals. $A$ graph is plotted with $T(t)$ on the $Y$-axis versus $t$ on the $X$-axis. Assume that there is no heat loss to the surroundings during heating. Then,

The ratio of the heat capacities of two bodies is $1:4$. If the rate of heat loss is the same for both bodies under similar environmental conditions,then the ratio of the rate of fall of their temperatures is:

What is the value of the specific heat of a solid by using the law of equipartition of energy?

Heat energy at a constant rate is supplied to two substances $P$ and $Q$. If the variation of temperature $(T)$ of the substances with time $(t)$ is as shown in the figure,then select the correct statement.

$A$ lead bullet of mass $10 \ g$ travelling at $300 \ m/s$ strikes against a block of wood and comes to rest. Assuming $50\%$ of heat is absorbed by the bullet, the increase in its temperature is (Specific heat of lead $= 150 \ J/kg \cdot ^{\circ}C$) (in $^{\circ}C$)
