At a power station,heat is removed from the heat exchanger by cooling water at $6.7 \times 10^9 \ J$ per minute. The cooling water enters at $6.0 \ ^oC$ and leaves at $14.0 \ ^oC$. [Take the specific heat capacity of water $4200 \ J/kg \ ^oC$]. Which of the following is the rate of water flow?

  • A
    $\frac{6.7 \times 10^9 \times 60}{4200 \times 8} \ kg \ s^{-1}$
  • B
    $\frac{6.7 \times 10^9}{4200 \times 8 \times 60} \ kg \ s^{-1}$
  • C
    $\frac{4200 \times 8}{6.7 \times 10^9 \times 60} \ kg \ s^{-1}$
  • D
    $\frac{4200 \times 8 \times 60}{6.7 \times 10^9} \ kg \ s^{-1}$

$50\, g$ of ice at $0\,^{\circ}C$ is dropped into a calorimeter containing $100\, g$ of water at $30\,^{\circ}C$. If the thermal capacity of the calorimeter is zero,then the amount of ice left in the mixture at equilibrium is ........ $g$.

$10 \, kg$ of water is to be heated from $20^{\circ}C$ to $80^{\circ}C$ in $1 \, hour$. Steam at $150^{\circ}C$ is passed through a copper coil immersed in the water. The steam condenses and returns to the boiler at $90^{\circ}C$. How much steam is required per hour? (Specific heat of water $= 1 \, cal/g^{\circ}C$,Latent heat of vaporization $= 540 \, cal/g$)

$2 \; g$ of steam condenses when passed through $40 \; g$ of water initially at $25 \; ^\circ C$. The condensation of steam raises the temperature of water to $54.3 \; ^\circ C$. What is the latent heat of steam in $cal/g$?
