Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Physics MCQ Test 8 - Question 3

By the problem
dp = ( 1000 - 1) atoms = 999 * 1.03 * 106 dyne / cm2 
L = 2.33 cal = 2.33*4.2*107 erg
vl = (1/13.59 ) c.c. = 0.073 c.c; vs = (1 /14.19) c.c = 0.070 c.c 
T = - 38.87°C = (- 38.87 + 273)K = 234.13K

Now we know that the freezing point of water into ice at 1 atmosphere pressure is 0°C. Hence the coordinates of point D on the ice line are 
P' = 1 atoms., t ' = 0o
dP = P'- P = 1 - 0.006 = 0.994 atmos.

and dT = dt = t'— 1 = 0 — 0.0075 = - 0. 0075:C
