In an experiment,a sphere of aluminium of mass $0.20\, kg$ is heated up to $150\, ^\circ C$. Immediately,it is put into water of volume $150\, cc$ at $27\, ^\circ C$ kept in a calorimeter of water equivalent $0.025\, kg$. The final temperature of the system is $40\, ^\circ C$. The specific heat of aluminium is ............ $J/kg\cdot ^\circ C$ (take $4.2\, J = 1\, cal$).

The temperature of water of mass $100 \ g$ is raised from $24^{\circ} C$ to $90^{\circ} C$ by adding steam to it. The mass of the steam added is (Latent heat of steam $= 540 \ cal \ g^{-1}$ and specific heat capacity of water $= 1 \ cal \ g^{-1} {}^{\circ} C^{-1}$) (in $g$)

$A$ glass beaker contains $200 \,g$ of carbonated water initially at $20^{\circ} C$. How much ice should be added to obtain the final temperature of $0^{\circ} C$ with all ice melted, if the initial temperature of ice is $-10^{\circ} C$ (in $\,g$)? Neglect the heat capacity of the glass.
[Take, $C_{\text{water}} = 4190 \,J/kg^{\circ} C$, $C_{\text{ice}} = 2100 \,J/kg^{\circ} C$, $L_F = 3.34 \times 10^5 \,J/kg$]
