The temperatures of two liquids $A$ and $B$ are $32 \, ^\circ C$ and $24 \, ^\circ C$ respectively. When equal masses of both are mixed,the temperature of the mixture becomes $28 \, ^\circ C$. The ratio of their specific heats is .....

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 $g$)

$A$ liquid of mass $m$ and specific heat $c$ is heated to a temperature $2T$. Another liquid of mass $m/2$ and specific heat $2c$ is heated to a temperature $T$. If these two liquids are mixed, the resulting temperature of the mixture 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.

$A$ piece of copper of mass $250 \ g$ at $500^{\circ} C$ is put inside a calorimeter of water equivalent $50 \ g$ containing $200 \ g$ of water at $20^{\circ} C$.
