Water falls from a height of $500 \ m$. What is the rise in temperature of water at the bottom if the whole energy remains in the water? (Assume $g = 9.8 \ m/s^2$ and specific heat capacity of water $c = 4200 \ J/kg \cdot ^\circ C$)

$A$ given mass $m$ of a hypothetical solid is supplied with heat continuously at a constant rate and the graph shown in the figure is plotted. If $L_f$ and $L_v$ are latent heats of fusion and vaporization,and $S_l$ and $S_s$ are specific heats of liquid and solid respectively,it can be concluded that:

On which of the following four processes does the functioning of a bimetallic strip depend?

$A$ thermoelectric emf of $200 \, \mu V$ is generated between $0 \, ^oC$ and $100 \, ^oC$. The emf generated between $(0 \, ^oC - 32 \, ^oC)$ and $(32 \, ^oC - 70 \, ^oC)$ are $64 \, \mu V$ and $76 \, \mu V$ respectively. What is the thermo $emf$ generated between $(70 \, ^oC - 100 \, ^oC)$ in $\mu V$?

$A$ $10.0 \,W$ electrical heater is used to heat a container filled with $0.5 \,kg$ of water. It is found that the temperature of the water and the container rose by $3 \,K$ in $15 \,min$. The container is then emptied,dried,and filled with $2 \,kg$ of an oil. It is now observed that the same heater raises the temperature of the container-oil system by $2 \,K$ in $20 \,min$. Assuming no other heat losses in any of the processes,the specific heat capacity of the oil is ................ $\times 10^3 \,J K^{-1} kg^{-1}$.
