Correct answer: C
-
Identify the governing process for each device
We match each device in Column I with the physical process in Column II.
(A) Bimetallic strip
- A bimetallic strip works because two metals have different coefficients of thermal expansion.
- On heating, one expands more than the other, causing bending.
- Hence it depends on thermal expansion.
So,
(B) Steam engine
- A steam engine converts heat energy of steam into mechanical work.
- So the essential process is energy conversion.
Thus,
(C) Incandescent lamp
- In an incandescent lamp, the filament gets heated to a high temperature and emits light.
- This is due to radiation from a hot body.
Therefore,
(D) Electric fuse
- A fuse wire melts when excessive current flows due to Joule heating.
- Its functioning depends on melting.
Hence,
-
