  • A
    The final temperature will be $0\,^oC$.
  • B
    Ice will completely melt.

$A$ piece of ice (heat capacity = $2100 \text{ J kg}^{-1} \text{ }^\circ\text{C}^{-1}$ and latent heat = $3.36 \times 10^5 \ J kg^{-1}$) of mass $m$ grams is at $-5^oC$ at atmospheric pressure. It is given $420 \ J$ of heat so that the ice starts melting. Finally, when the ice-water mixture is in equilibrium, it is found that $1 \ gm$ of ice has melted. Assuming there is no other heat exchange in the process, the value of $m$ is ...... $gm$.

$A$ child running a temperature of $101\,^{\circ} F$ is given an antipyrin (i.e. a medicine that lowers fever) which causes an increase in the rate of evaporation of sweat from his body. If the fever is brought down to $98\,^{\circ} F$ in $20$ minutes,what is the average rate of extra evaporation caused by the drug (in $g/min$)? Assume the evaporation mechanism to be the only way by which heat is lost. The mass of the child is $30\; kg$. The specific heat of the human body is approximately the same as that of water,and the latent heat of evaporation of water at that temperature is about $580\; cal \;g^{-1}$.
