$A$ stationary object at $4^{\circ} C$ and weighing $3.5 \ kg$ falls from a height of $2000 \ m$ on a snow mountain at $0^{\circ} C$. If the temperature of the object just before hitting the snow is $0^{\circ} C$ and the object comes to rest immediately,then the quantity of ice that melts is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \ m/s^2$,Latent heat of ice $= 3.5 \times 10^5 \ J/kg$)

Water falls from a height of $200 \ m$ into a pool. Calculate the rise in temperature of the water assuming no heat dissipation from the water in the pool. ($g = 10 \ m/s^2$,specific heat of water $s = 4200 \ J/(kg \ K)$) (in $K$)

What type of changes occur in an object by heating it?

Two different liquids of same mass are kept in two identical vessels,which are placed in a freezer that extracts heat from them at the same rate,causing each liquid to transform into a solid. The schematic figure below shows the temperature $T$ versus time $t$ plot for the two materials. We denote the specific heat of materials in the liquid (solid) states to be $C_{L1}$ $(C_{S1})$ and $C_{L2}$ $(C_{S2})$,respectively. Choose the correct option given below.

The heat extracted out of $x \ \text{g}$ of water initially at $50^\circ \text{C}$ to cool it down to $0^\circ \text{C}$ is sufficient to evaporate $(1000 - x) \ \text{g}$ of water also initially at $50^\circ \text{C}$. The value of $x$ (closest integer) is . . . . . . . (Take latent heat of water $L = 2256 \ \text{kJ/kg}$, specific heat capacity of water $c = 4200 \ \text{J/kg}\cdot \text{K}$)
