State whether the following sentence is true or false. ‘blood is thicker than water’ is transformed from comparative to positive degree as ‘water is not as thick as blood’.

State whether the following sentence is true or false. ‘blood is thicker than water’ is transformed from comparative to positive degree as ‘water is not as thick as blood’. Correct Answer True

In the sentence given, the word ‘thicker than’ tells the comparative tone given which is replaced using the words ‘as thick as’ and changes the degree of comparison into positive. Thus, transformation from comparative to positive is done in transformation of degrees of comparison. Thus, the given statement ‘water is not as thick as blood’ is the correct transformation of the sentence ‘blood is thicker than water’.

The rear window of an automobile is made of thick glass i.e. AB = 5 mm and thermal conductivity is 0.8 W/m degree. To defrost this window, a thin transparent film type heating element has been fixed to its inner surface. For the conditions given below, determine the electric power that must be provided per unit area of window if a temperature 5 degree Celsius is maintained at its outer surface. Interior air temperature and the corresponding surface coefficient are 20 degree Celsius and 12 W/m2 degree. Surrounding air temperature and the corresponding surface coefficient are – 15 degree Celsius and 70 W/m2 degree. Electric heater provides uniform heat flux
A composite slab consists of 5 cm thick layer of steel (k = 146 kJ/m hr degree) on the left side and a 6 cm thick layer of brass (k = 276 kJ/m hr degree) on the right hand side. The outer surfaces of the steel and brass are maintained at 100 degree Celsius and 50 degree Celsius. The contact between the two slabs is perfect and heat is generated at the rate of 4.2 * 10 5 k J/m2 hr at the plane of contact. The heat thus generated is dissipated from both sides of composite slab for steady state conditions. Calculate the temperature at the interface
