The temperature of boiling water in Fahrenheit scale is MCQ with Answer and Explanation

The temperature of boiling water in Fahrenheit scale is
A. 212°F
B. 100°F
C. 180°F
D. 32°F
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Boiling point 100°C = (9/5×100)+32 = 180+32 = 212°F. Freezing 0°C = 32°F. Body temp 98.4°F ≈ 37°C. Scale conversion.

Question #1
A 50 kg man climbs 30 steps each 20 cm high in 10 s. His power (g=10 m/s²) is
A. 600 W
B. 150 W
C. 30 W
D. 300 W

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Total height = 30 × 0.2 m = 6 m. Work done = mgh = 50 × 10 × 6 = 3000 J. Power = Work/time = 3000/10 = 300 W. If steps height and number given, calculate total vertical displacement. Time taken for climbing is important. Power is rate of doing work.

Question #2
A bimetallic strip bends on heating due to
A. Different thermal expansion coefficients
B. Different specific heats
C. Different melting points
D. Different densities

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Bimetallic strip consists of two metals with different coefficients of linear expansion. On heating, one expands more, causing bending. Used in thermostats, fire alarms. Expansion difference causes curvature.

Question #3
Heat transfer in liquids and gases mainly occurs by
A. Radiation
B. Convection
C. Sublimation
D. Conduction

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Convection: movement of fluid due to density differences caused by temperature. Hot fluid rises, cold sinks, creating currents. Land/sea breeze, trade winds. Conduction in solids primarily.
