Objects $A$ and $B$ that are initially separated from each other and well isolated from their surroundings are then brought into thermal contact. Initially $T_A = 0^{\circ}C$ and $T_B = 100^{\circ}C$. The specific heat of $A$ is less than the specific heat of $B$. After some time,the system comes to an equilibrium state. The final temperatures are :

In an experiment on the specific heat of a metal,a $0.20 \; kg$ block of the metal at $150 \; ^{\circ}C$ is dropped in a copper calorimeter (of water equivalent $0.025 \; kg$) containing $150 \; cm^{3}$ of water at $27 \; ^{\circ}C$. The final temperature is $40 \; ^{\circ}C$. Compute the specific heat of the metal. If heat losses to the surroundings are not negligible,is your answer greater or smaller than the actual value for the specific heat of the metal?

$100 \text{ g}$ of ice at $0^{\circ}C$ is mixed with $100 \text{ g}$ of water at $100^{\circ}C$. The final temperature of the mixture is. [Take,$L_f = 3.36 \times 10^5 \text{ J kg}^{-1}$ and $S_w = 4.2 \times 10^3 \text{ J kg}^{-1} \text{ K}^{-1}$] (in $^{\circ}C$)

When $x \text{ grams}$ of steam at $100^{\circ}C$ is mixed with $y \text{ grams}$ of ice at $0^{\circ}C$,we obtain $(x + y) \text{ grams}$ of water at $100^{\circ}C$. What is the ratio $y/x$?

$M$ grams of steam at $100^{\circ} C$ is mixed with $200 \; g$ of ice at its melting point in a thermally insulated container. If it produces liquid water at $40^{\circ} C$ [heat of vaporization of water is $540 \; cal/g$ and heat of fusion of ice is $80 \; cal/g$],the value of $M$ is:

$A$ coffee maker makes coffee by passing steam through a mixture of coffee powder,milk,and water. If the steam is mixed at the rate of $50 \, g/min$ in a mug containing $500 \, g$ of mixture,then it takes about $t_0$ seconds to make coffee at $70^{\circ} C$ when the initial temperature of the mixture is $25^{\circ} C$. The value of $t_0$ is close to .......... $s$ (ratio of latent heat of evaporation to specific heat of water is $540^{\circ} C$ and specific heat of the mixture can be taken to be the same as that of water).
