Two identical bodies are made of a material for which the heat capacity increases with temperature. One of these is held at a temperature of $100^{\circ} C$,while the other one is kept at $0^{\circ} C$. If the two are brought into contact,then assuming no heat loss to the environment,the final temperature that they will reach is
