$50\, gm$ of copper is heated to increase its temperature by $10\,^oC$. If the same quantity of heat is given to $10\, gm$ of water, the rise in its temperature is ........ $^oC$ (Specific heat of copper $=420\, Joule\, kg^{-1}\,^oC^{-1}$)
A
$5$
B
$6$
C
$7$
D
$8$
Solution
Heat absorbed by copper=heat absorbed by water
Heat absorbed $=$ mass $\times$ specific heat $\times$ temperature difference
$\Rightarrow 50 \times 0.42 \times 10=10 \times 4.2 \times \Delta T$
$\Rightarrow \Delta T=5^{\circ} C$
