Select the correct answer. An Iron bar at 200°C Is placed in thermal contact with an Identical Iron bar at 120°C In an Isolated system. After 30 minutes, both Iron bars are at
160°C. If the Iron bars were placed in thermal contact in an open system Instead of an Isolated systemn, how would the results be different?
Assume that the room temperature Is 25°C.
The temperatures of the Iron bars after 30 minutes would be less than 160°C because heat would be lost to the surroundings.
O B. It would take more than 30 minutes for both Iron bars to reach 60°C because heat would be transferred less efficiently.
O c
The temperatures of both Iron bars would Increase as they absorb heat from the surroundings.
O D. The temperatures of both Iron bars would decrease because pleces of them would be ost to the surroundings.

a mercury barometer is a device that uses the physical properties of mercury in a tube to measure barometric pressure. mercury barometers are used for : -

1. measurement of atmospheric pressure  

2. determining the altitude of a place

3. weather forecasting

4. calibration and checking of aneroid barometers

5. application in fluid mechanics

6. measurement of pressure in aircrafts

7. surface weather analysis

8. preparation of barographs

9. usage in physical sciences like physics, astronomy & chemistry

10. preparation of aircraft altimeters

characteristics of mercury barometer : -

1.used to define and measure atmospheric pressure.

2.on the average at sea level the column of mercury rises to a height of about 760 mm.

3.this quantity is equal to 1 atmosphere.

4.it is also known as standard atmospheric pressure.

5.a barometer in which the weight of a column of mercury in a glass tube with a sealed top is balanced against that of the atmosphere pressing on an exposed cistern of mercury at the base of the mercury column, the height of the column varying with atmospheric pressure.
