$A$ $2\,kg$ copper block is heated to $500^\circ C$ and then it is placed on a large block of ice at $0^\circ C$. If the specific heat capacity of copper is $400\, J/kg/ ^\circ C$ and latent heat of fusion of water is $3.5 \times 10^5\, J/kg$,the amount of ice that can melt is:

  • A
    $7/8\, kg$
  • B
    $7/5\, kg$
  • C
    $8/7\, kg$
  • D
    $5/7\, kg$

$5 \ kg$ of water at $20^{\circ} C$ is added to $10 \ kg$ of water at $60^{\circ} C$. Neglecting the heat capacity of the vessel and other losses,the resultant temperature will be nearly: (in $^{\circ} C$)

The thermal capacity of a body is $80 \, cal/^{\circ}C$. What is its water equivalent?

How many grams of a liquid with a specific heat of $0.2 \, cal/g^{\circ}C$ at a temperature of $40^{\circ}C$ must be mixed with $100 \, g$ of a liquid with a specific heat of $0.5 \, cal/g^{\circ}C$ at a temperature of $20^{\circ}C$,so that the final temperature of the mixture becomes $32^{\circ}C$?

$10 \ kg$ of ice at $-10^{\circ}C$ is added to $100 \ kg$ of water to lower its temperature from $25^{\circ}C.$ Consider no heat exchange to surroundings. The decrement to the temperature of water is . . . . . . $^{\circ}C.$ (specific heat of ice $= 2100 \ J/kg.^{\circ}C$, specific heat of water $= 4200 \ J/kg.^{\circ}C$, latent heat of fusion of ice $= 3.36 \times 10^{5} \ J/kg$)

Equal masses of three liquids $A, B$ and $C$ have temperatures $10\,^{\circ}C$,$25\,^{\circ}C$ and $40\,^{\circ}C$ respectively. If $A$ and $B$ are mixed,the mixture has a temperature of $15\,^{\circ}C$. If $B$ and $C$ are mixed,the mixture has a temperature of $30\,^{\circ}C$. If $A$ and $C$ are mixed,the mixture will have a temperature of ........ $^{\circ}C$
