The temperatures of equal masses of three different liquids $A, B$ and $C$ are $15^{\circ} C, 24^{\circ} C$ and $30^{\circ} C$ respectively. The resultant temperature when liquids $A$ and $B$ are mixed is $20^{\circ} C$ and when liquids $B$ and $C$ are mixed is $26^{\circ} C$. Then the ratio of specific heat capacities of the liquids $A, B$ and $C$ is

The specific heat of alcohol is about half that of water. Suppose you have identical masses of alcohol and water. The alcohol is initially at temperature $T_A$. The water is initially at a different temperature $T_W$. Now the two fluids are mixed in the same container and allowed to come into thermal equilibrium,with no loss of heat to the surroundings. The final temperature of the mixture will be

Two liquids of equal mass have temperatures $32^{\circ}C$ and $24^{\circ}C$. When mixed,the final temperature becomes $28^{\circ}C$. What is the ratio of their specific heats?

The temperature of a copper piece of mass $50 \ g$ is raised by $10 \ ^\circ C$.
