$A$ sphere of $0.047 \; kg$ aluminium is placed for a sufficient time in a vessel containing boiling water,so that the sphere is at $100 \; ^{\circ}C$. It is then immediately transferred to a $0.14 \; kg$ copper calorimeter containing $0.25 \; kg$ water at $20 \; ^{\circ}C$. The temperature of the water rises and attains a steady state at $23 \; ^{\circ}C$. Calculate the specific heat capacity of aluminium in $kJ \; kg^{-1} K^{-1}$.

The temperature of $100 \,g$ of water is to be raised from $24^{\circ} C$ to $90^{\circ} C$ by adding steam at $100^{\circ} C$ to it. The mass of the steam required in this process is (latent heat of steam is $540 \,cal \,g^{-1}$). (in $\,g$)

$A$ beaker contains $200\,g$ of water. The heat capacity of the beaker is equal to that of $20\,g$ of water. The initial temperature of water in the beaker is $20\,^{\circ}C$. If $440\,g$ of hot water at $92\,^{\circ}C$ is poured in it,the final temperature (neglecting radiation loss) will be nearest to ........ $^{\circ}C$.
