Ice at $0^o C$ is added to $200 \,\,g$ of water initially at $70^o C$ in a vacuum flask. When $50\,\, g$ of ice has been added and has all melted the temperature of the flask and contents is $40^o C$. When a further $80\,\,g$ of ice has been added and has all metled, the temperature of the whole is $10^o C$. Calculate the specific latent heat of fusion of ice.[Take $S_w =1\,\, cal /gm ^o C$.]

Two rigid boxes containing different ideal gases are placed on a table. Box A contains one mole of nitrogen at temperature $T_0$, while Box contains one mole of helium at temperature $(7/3)$ $T_0$ The boxes are then put into thermal contact with each other, and heat flows between them until the gases reach a common final temperature (ignore the heat capacity of boxes). Then, the final temperature of the gases,$T_f$  in terms of $T_0$ is
