Steam at $100^{\circ} C$ is added to $150 \,g$ of water to increase its temperature from $20^{\circ} C$ to $40^{\circ} C$. The total mass of the water at $40^{\circ} C$ is (specific heat capacity of water $= 1 \,cal \,g^{-1} {}^{\circ} C^{-1}$ and latent heat of steam $= 540 \,cal \,g^{-1}$) (in $\,g$)

$A$ metal ball of mass $0.1 \, kg$ is heated up to $500 \, ^\circ C$ and dropped into a vessel of heat capacity $800 \, J K^{-1}$ containing $0.5 \, kg$ of water. The initial temperature of the water and the vessel is $30 \, ^\circ C$. The approximate percentage increment in the temperature of the water is ........ $\%$. [Specific heat capacities of water and metal are $4200 \, J kg^{-1} K^{-1}$ and $400 \, J kg^{-1} K^{-1}$ respectively.]

The time taken for a calorimeter containing $75 \ g$ of water at $62^{\circ} C$ to cool to $58^{\circ} C$ is $9 \ minutes$. When the calorimeter contains $105 \ g$ of water,it takes $12 \ minutes$ to cool from $62^{\circ} C$ to $58^{\circ} C$. The water equivalent of the calorimeter is $.........$ (in $g$)

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 :

$10 \, g$ of ice at $-20^{\circ} C$ is kept in a calorimeter containing $10 \, g$ of water at $10^{\circ} C$. The specific heat of water is twice that of ice. When equilibrium is reached, the calorimeter will contain ..........
