Q. The amount of heat conducted out per second through a window, when inside temperature is 10$℃$ and outside temperature is $- 10℃$, is 1000 J. Same heat will be conducted in through the window, when outside temperature $- 23℃$ and inside temperature is

A) 23$℃$
B) 230 $K$
C) 270 $K$
D) 296 $K$
Explanation

(c) For the same heat to be conducted, temperature difference must be same.
Initial temperature difference $10 - ( - 10) =$20$℃ = 20K$
Outside temperature = $- 23℃ = - 23 + 273 = 250K$
Inside temperature =250+20=270K
