An aluminium piece of mass $50 \,g$ initially at $300^{\circ} C$ is dipped quickly and taken out of $1 \,kg$ of water,initially at $30^{\circ} C$. If the temperature of the aluminium piece immediately after being taken out of the water is found to be $160^{\circ} C$,the temperature of the water is ............ $^{\circ} C$. The specific heat capacities of aluminium and water are $900 \,J \,kg^{-1} K^{-1}$ and $4200 \,J \,kg^{-1} K^{-1}$,respectively.

Three bodies of masses $m_1, m_2, m_3$ are mixed together. Their specific heats are $c_1, c_2, c_3$ and their temperatures are $T_1, T_2, T_3$ respectively. What is the temperature of the mixture?

$A$ piece of copper of mass $250 \ g$ at $500^{\circ} C$ is put inside a calorimeter of water equivalent $50 \ g$ containing $200 \ g$ of water at $20^{\circ} C$. At thermal equilibrium,the temperature of the mixture is $60^{\circ} C$. The specific heat of copper (in $J / kg \cdot ^{\circ} C$) is approximately: [Specific heat of water $= 4200 \ J / kg \cdot ^{\circ} C$]
