A human body has a surface area of approximately $1\,m{}^2.$ The normal body temperature is $10$ $K$ above the surrounding room temperature ${T_0}.$ Take the room temperature to be ${T_0} = 300K.$ For ${T_0} = 300\,K,$ the value of $\sigma T_0^4 = 460\,W{m^{ - 2}}$ (where $\sigma $ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant).

Which of the following options is / are correct?
A.
The amount of energy radiated by the body in $1$ second is close to $60$ joules
B.
If the surrounding temperature reduces by a small amount $\Delta {T_0} < < {T_0},$ then to maintain the same body temperature the same (living) human being needs to radiate $\Delta W = 4\sigma T_0^3\Delta {T_0}$ more energy per unit time
C.
Reducing the exposed surface area of the body (e.g. by curling up) allows human to maintain the same body temperature while reducing the energy lost by radiation
D.
If the body temperature rises significantly then the peak in the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation emitted by the body would shift to longer wavelengths

If r = 5 $ \times $ 10−4 m, $\rho $ = 103 kg m−3 , g = 10 m/s2 , T = 0.11 Nm−1 , the radius of the drop when it detaches from the dropper is approximately

A.
1.4 $ \times $ 10−3 m
B.
3.3 $ \times $ 10−3 m
C.
2.0 $ \times $ 10−3 m
D.
4.1 $ \times $ 10−3 m

Two soap bubbles A and B are kept in a closed chamber where the air is maintained at pressure 8 N/m$^2$. The radii of bubbles A and B are 2 cm and 4 cm, respectively. Surface tension of the soap-water used to make bubbles is 0.04 N/m. Find the ratio $n_B/n_A$, where $n_A$ and $n_B$ are the number of moles of air in bubbles A and B, respectively. (Neglect the effect of gravity.)

A cylindrical vessel of height 500 mm has an orifice (small hole) at its bottom. The orifice is initially closed and water is filled in it up to height H. Now the top is completely sealed with a cap and the orifice at the bottom is opened. Some water comes out from the orifice and the water level in the vessel becomes steady with height of water column being 200 mm. Find the fall in height (in mm) of water level due to opening of the orifice. (Take atmospheric pressure = 1.0 $\times$ 10$^5$ N/m$^2$, density of water = 1000 kg/m$^3$ and g = 10 m/s$^2$. Neglect any effect of surface tension.)
