By exerting a certain amount of pressure on an ice block,you:

Water of volume $2\, L$ in a container is heated with a coil of $1\, kW$ at $27 \,^{\circ}C$. The lid of the container is open and energy dissipates at a rate of $160\, J/s$. In how much time will the temperature rise from $27\,^{\circ}C$ to $77\,^{\circ}C$? [Given: specific heat of water is $4.2\, kJ/(kg \cdot K)$]

In a thermocouple,if the thermo $EMF$ is given by $E = 40\theta - \frac{\theta^2}{20}$,then the neutral temperature will be .......... $^oC$.

Heat is being supplied at a constant rate to a sphere of ice which is melting at the rate of $0.1 \, g/s$. It melts completely in $100 \, s$. The rate of rise of temperature thereafter will be ........ $^\circ C/s$ (Assume no loss of heat.)

$A$ block of ice at temperature $-20^{\circ} C$ is slowly heated and converted to steam at $100^{\circ} C$. Which of the following diagrams is most appropriate?

The top of a lake gets frozen at a place where the surrounding air is at a temperature of $-20\,^oC$. Then
