A block of ice at $- 10°C$ is slowly heated and converted to steam at $100°C.$ Which of the following curves represents the phenomenon qualitatively

A copper block of mass $2.5\; kg$ is heated in a furnace to a temperature of $500\,^{\circ} C$ and then placed on a large ice block. What is the maximum amount of ice (in $kg$) that can melt? (Specific heat of copper $=0.39\; J g ^{-1} K ^{-1}$ ;heat of fusion of water $=335\; J g ^{-1})$

Dry ice is

During summers in India, one of the common practice to keep cool is to make ice balls of crushed ice, dip it in flavoured sugar syrup and sip it. For this a stick is inserted into crushed ice and is squeezed in the palm to make it into the ball. Equivalently in winter, in those areas where it snows, people make snow balls and throw around. Explain the formation of ball out of crushed ice or snow in the light of $p\to T$ diagram of water.

A quantity of heat required to change the unit mass of a solid substance, from solid state to liquid state, while the temperature remains constant, is known as

A lead bullet at $27°C$ just melts when stopped by an obstacle. Assuming that $25\%$ of heat is absorbed by the obstacle, then the velocity of the bullet at the time of striking........ $m/sec$  ($M.P.$ of lead $= 327°C,$ specific heat of lead $= 0.03\, cal/gm°C,$ latent heat of fusion of lead $= 6\, cal/gm$ and $J = 4.2\, joule/cal)$
