$A$ 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 $(g = 10\, m/s^2)$ and (latent heat of ice $= 3.5 \times 10^5\, J/kg$),then the amount of ice that will melt is:

  • A
    $2\, kg$ of ice
  • B
    $200\, g$ of ice
  • C
    $20\, g$ of ice
  • D
    $2\, g$ of ice

$A$ beaker is filled with water at $4\,^{\circ}C$. At one time the temperature is increased by a few degrees above $4\,^{\circ}C$ and at another time it is decreased by a few degrees below $4\,^{\circ}C$. One shall observe that:

One $kg$ of water, at $20, ^oC$, is heated in an electric kettle whose heating element has a mean (temperature averaged) resistance of $20, \Omega$. The rms voltage in the mains is $200, V$. Ignoring heat loss from the kettle, the time taken for water to evaporate fully is close to.......... $min$. [Specific heat of water $= 4200, J/kg, ^oC$, Latent heat of water $= 2260, kJ/kg$]

$M \ kg$ of water at $t^{\circ} C$ is divided into two parts so that one part of mass $m \ kg$ when converted into ice at $0^{\circ} C$ would release enough heat to vaporize the other part. Then $\frac{m}{M}$ is equal to (Specific heat of water $= 1 \ cal \ g^{-1} {}^{\circ} C^{-1}$,Latent heat of fusion of ice $= 80 \ cal \ g^{-1}$,Latent heat of steam $= 540 \ cal \ g^{-1}$)

Out of the following,in which vessel will the temperature of the solution be higher after the salt is completely dissolved?

$A$ refrigerator converts $500\,g$ of water at $25\,^{\circ}C$ into ice at $-10\,^{\circ}C$ in $3\,hours\,40\,minutes$. The quantity of heat removed per minute is ........ $cal/\min$.
(Specific heat of water $= 1\,cal/g\,^{\circ}C$,Specific heat of ice $= 0.5\,cal/g\,^{\circ}C$,Latent heat of fusion $= 80\,cal/g$)
