sphere of $0.047 \;kg$ aluminium is placed for sufficient time in a vessel containing boiling water, so that the sphere is at $100\,^{\circ} C .$ It is then immediately transfered to $0.14 \;kg$ copper calorimeter containing $0.25\; kg$ water at $20\,^{\circ} C$. The temperature of water rises and attains a steady state at $23\,^{\circ} C$. Calculate the specific heat capacity of aluminium in $kJ\;kg^{-1} K^{-1}$ 

Due to cold weather a $1\, {m}$ water pipe of cross-sectional area $1\, {cm}^{2}$ is filled with ice at $-10^{\circ} {C}$. Resistive heating is used to melt the ice. Current of $0.5\, {A}$ is passed through $4\, {k} \Omega$ resistance. Assuming that all the heat produced is used for melting, what is the minimum time required ? (In ${s}$)

(Given latent heat of fusion for water/ice $=3.33 \times 10^{5}\, {J} {kg}^{-1}$, specific heat of ice $=2 \times 10^{3}\, {J}$ ${kg}^{-1}$ and density of ice $=10^{3}\, {kg} / {m}^{3}$

A vessel contains $110\,\,g$  of water. The heat capacity of the vessel is equal to $10\,\,g$ of water. The initial temperature of water in vessel is $10\,^oC.$  If  $220\,\,g$  of hot water at  $70\,^oC$ is poured in the vessel, the final temperature neglecting radiation loss, will be …….. $^oC$

$80\, gm$ of water at $30°C$ are poured on a large block of ice at $0°C.$ The mass of ice that melts is …….. $gm$

One end of a $2.35\,\,m$ long and $2.0\,\,cm$ radius aluminium rod$(K = 235 \,\,W.m^{-1}K^{-1})$ is held at $20^0\,\,C$. The other end of the rod is in contact with a block of ice at its melting point. The rate in $kg.s^{-1}$ at which ice melts is

[Take latent heat of fusion for ice as $\frac{{10}}{3} ×10^5 J.kg^{-1} $]
