$A$ stationary object at $4^{\circ} C$ and weighing $3.5 \ kg$ falls from a height of $2000 \ m$ on a snow mountain at $0^{\circ} C$. If the temperature of the object just before hitting the snow is $0^{\circ} C$ and the object comes to rest immediately,then the quantity of ice that melts is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \ m/s^2$,Latent heat of ice $= 3.5 \times 10^5 \ J/kg$)

An iron rod of heat capacity $C$ is heated to temperature $8T_0$. It is then put in a cylindrical vessel of adiabatic walls having two moles of air which can be treated as a diatomic ideal gas at temperature $T_0$ and closed by a movable piston which is also adiabatic. The atmospheric pressure is $P_0$. The cylinder with the piston combined have a heat capacity $2C$. Find the equilibrium temperature. (Assume the temperature of air to be uniform and equal to the vessel at all times).
