3. What is Convection?
4. In a car lift compressed air exerts a force F1 on a small piston having a radius of 5.0 cm. This
pressure is transmitted to a second piston of radius 15 cm . If the mass of the car to be lifted is
1350 kg, calculate F1 . What is the pressure necessary to accomplish this task? (g = 9.8 ms-2)

Calculate the heat required to convert 3 kg of ice at –12 °C kept in a calorimeter to steam at 100
°C at atmospheric pressure. Given specific heat capacity of ice = 2100 J kg–1 K–1, specific heat
capacity of water = 4186 J kg– 1 K–1, latent heat of fusion of ice = 3.35 × 105 J kg–1 and latent
(a) Time period of a particle in SHM depends on the force constant k and mass m of the particle:
T =2π (m/k)1/2 . A simple pendulum executes SHM approximately. Why then is the time period
(b) The motion of a simple pendulum is approximately simple harmonic for small angle
oscillations. For larger angles of oscillation, a more involved analysis shows that T is greater than
