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 solid material is supplied with heat at constant rate and the temperature of the material changes as shown below. From the graph, the false conclusion drawn is:

At temperatures close to $0\ K$ , the heat capacity $C$ of a certain solid is related to its temperature $T$ by the equation $C = aT^3$ , where a is a constant characteristic of the solid. Heat is supplied to the solid at a steady rate. Which graph best represents the variation of its temperature $T$ with time $t$ ?
