Question

In the arrangements A and B as shown in figure, pins P and Q are fixed to a metal loop and an iron rod with the help of wax. In which case are both the pins likely to fall at different times? Explain.​

Answer 1

Answer:

In the case 'A', the heat moves in both directions So, the pins, P and Q will stop working simultaneously. In the case 'B', the pin P will not succeed before the pin Q. The reason behind is that the heat will reach at pin P first. Was this answer helpful?
