$A$ metal block is made from a mixture of $2.4 \ kg$ of aluminium,$1.6 \ kg$ of brass,and $0.8 \ kg$ of copper. The metal block is initially at $20^{\circ} C$. If the heat supplied to the metal block is $44.4 \ cal$,find the final temperature of the block if the specific heats of aluminium,brass,and copper are $0.216, 0.0917, 0.0931 \ cal \cdot kg^{-1} \cdot ^{\circ}C^{-1}$ respectively. (in $^{\circ} C$)

$A$ cube is subjected to a pressure $P$ on all its faces at a temperature of $0 \, ^\circ C$. By what temperature should the cube be heated so that it regains its original volume? Let the bulk modulus of the cube be $\beta$ and the coefficient of volume expansion be $\alpha$.

Fill in the blanks:
$1.$ The temperature of freezing point ...... and temperature of boiling point ...... are taken in a Fahrenheit thermometer.
$2.$ The zeroth law of thermodynamics defines ...... and the first law of thermodynamics defines ......
$3.$ At ...... temperature,water and water vapour have equal density.
$4.$ The ...... has the maximum value of specific heat.

Consider two thermometers $T_1$ and $T_2$ of equal length,which can be used to measure temperature over the range $\theta_1$ to $\theta_2$. $T_1$ contains mercury as the thermometric liquid,while $T_2$ contains bromine. The volumes of the two liquids are the same at the temperature $\theta_1$. The volumetric coefficients of expansion of mercury and bromine are $18 \times 10^{-5} \, K^{-1}$ and $108 \times 10^{-5} \, K^{-1}$,respectively. The increase in length of each liquid is the same for the same increase in temperature. If the diameters of the capillary tubes of the two thermometers are $d_1$ and $d_2$,respectively,then the ratio $d_1: d_2$ is closest to:

Water falls from a height of $500\,m$. The rise in temperature of the water at the bottom,assuming all energy remains in the water,will be ........ $^oC$ [Specific heat of water = $4.2\,kJ/kg\cdot K$]
