The 'Kangri' is an earthen pot used to stay warm in Kashmir during the winter months. Assume that the 'Kangri' is spherical and of surface area $7 \times 10^{-2} \,m ^{2}$. It contains $300 g$ of a mixture of coal, wood and leaves with calorific value of $30 \,kJ / g$ (and provides heat with $10 \%$ efficiency). The surface temperature of the 'Kangri' is $60^{\circ} C$ and the room temperature is $0^{\circ} C$. Then, a reasonable estimate for the duration $t$ (in h) that the 'Kangri' heat will last is (take the 'Kangri' to be a black body)

One day in the morning, Ramesh filled up $\frac {1}{3}$ bucket of hot water from geyser, to take bath. Remaining $\frac {2}{3}$ was to be filled by cold water (at room temperature) to bring mixture to a comfortable temperature. Suddenly Ramesh had to attend to something which would take some times, say $5-10$ $\min$ before he could take bath. Now he had two options: $(1)$ fill the remaining bucket completely by cold water and then attend to the work, $(2)$ first  attend tothe work and fill the remaining bucket just before taking bath. Which option do you think would have kept water warmer ? Explain.
