$A$ piece of metal of $850 \text{ K}$ is dropped into $1 \text{ kg}$ of water at $300 \text{ K}$. If the equilibrium temperature of the mixture is $350 \text{ K}$, then the heat capacity of the metal expressed in $\text{J/K}$ is (Specific heat of water = $4200 \text{ J/kg} \cdot \text{K}$)

$A$ coffee maker makes coffee by passing steam through a mixture of coffee powder,milk,and water. If the steam is mixed at the rate of $50 \, g/min$ in a mug containing $500 \, g$ of mixture,then it takes about $t_0$ seconds to make coffee at $70^{\circ} C$ when the initial temperature of the mixture is $25^{\circ} C$. The value of $t_0$ is close to .......... $s$ (ratio of latent heat of evaporation to specific heat of water is $540^{\circ} C$ and specific heat of the mixture can be taken to be the same as that of water).
