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.)

The height of a waterfall is $50 \ m$. If $g = 9.8 \ m/s^2$, the difference between the temperature at the top and the bottom of the waterfall is: (in $^{\circ} C$)

An earthen pitcher used in summer cools water in it essentially by evaporation of water from its porous surface. If a pitcher carries $4 \,kg$ of water and the rate of evaporation is $20 \,g$ per hour,the temperature of water in it decreases by $\Delta T$ in two hours. The value of $\Delta T$ is close to ........... $^{\circ} C$ (ratio of latent heat of evaporation to specific heat of water is $540^{\circ} C$).

$10 \, g$ of ice at $0^{\circ} C$ is kept in a calorimeter of water equivalent $10 \, g$. How much heat (in $cal$) should be supplied to the apparatus to evaporate the water thus formed? (Neglect loss of heat)

It is known that wax contracts on solidification. If molten wax is taken in a large vessel and it is allowed to cool slowly,then

What is the main difference between the $P-T$ phase diagram of water and $CO_2$?
