$A$ tap supplies water at $10\,^{\circ}C$ and another tap at $100\,^{\circ}C$. How many $kg$ of hot water must be taken so that we get $20\, kg$ of water at $35\,^{\circ}C$?

$20 \, g$ of boiling water is poured into an ice-cold brass vessel (specific heat $0.1 \, cal/g-^{\circ}C$) of mass $100 \, g$. The resulting temperature is ........ $^{\circ}C$.

Two identical bodies are made of a material for which the heat capacity increases with temperature. One of these is held at a temperature of $100^{\circ} C$,while the other one is kept at $0^{\circ} C$. If the two are brought into contact,then assuming no heat loss to the environment,the final temperature that they will reach is

$A$ piece of ice (heat capacity $= 2100 \ J \ kg^{-1} \ ^{\circ}C^{-1}$ and latent heat $= 3.36 \times 10^5 \ J \ kg^{-1}$) of mass $m$ grams is at $-5^{\circ}C$ at atmospheric pressure. It is given $420 \ J$ of heat so that the ice starts melting. Finally,when the ice-water mixture is in equilibrium,it is found that $1 \ g$ of ice has melted. Assuming there is no other heat exchange in the process,the value of $m$ is:

An aluminium piece of mass $50 \,g$ initially at $300^{\circ} C$ is dipped quickly and taken out of $1 \,kg$ of water,initially at $30^{\circ} C$. If the temperature of the aluminium piece immediately after being taken out of the water is found to be $160^{\circ} C$,the temperature of the water is ............ $^{\circ} C$. The specific heat capacities of aluminium and water are $900 \,J \,kg^{-1} K^{-1}$ and $4200 \,J \,kg^{-1} K^{-1}$,respectively.
