How much thermal energy is required to change a $40 \ g$ ice cube from solid at $-10^{\circ} C$ to steam at $110^{\circ} C$ (in $kcal$)?
[Assume,latent heat of fusion for water $= 80 \ kcal/kg$,specific heat of water $= 1 \ kcal/kg^{\circ} C$,specific heat of ice $= 0.5 \ kcal/kg^{\circ} C$,specific heat of steam $= 0.48 \ kcal/kg^{\circ} C$,latent heat of vaporisation of water $= 540 \ kcal/kg$]

Column $I$ gives some devices and Column $II$ gives some processes on which the functioning of these devices depends. Match the devices in Column $I$ with the processes in Column $II$.

$A$ mass $m$ of material exists in its solid state at its melting temperature $0^\circ C$. The following processes occur to the material:
Process-$1$: An amount of thermal energy $Q$ is added to the material, and $\frac{2}{3}$ of the material melts.
Process-$2$: An identical additional amount of thermal energy $Q$ is added to the material, and the material is now a liquid at $40^\circ C$.
What is the ratio of the latent heat of fusion $(L)$ to the specific heat of the liquid $(s)$ for this material?

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 $= 2260, kJ/kg$]

The temperature of a body is given by $T = 6t^2 + 4$. The rate of change of temperature with respect to time at $t = 10 \ s$ is ........ $K/s$. ($T$ is in $Kelvin$ and $t$ is in $seconds$)
