Which of the following best represents the temperature versus heat supplied graph for water, in the range of $-20^{\circ}C$ to $120^{\circ}C$?

The pressure applied from all directions on a cube is $P$. How much should its temperature be raised to maintain the original volume? The volume elasticity of the cube is $\beta$ and the coefficient of volume expansion is $\alpha$.

Heat is being supplied at a constant rate to a sphere of ice which is melting at the rate of $0.1 \, g/s$. It melts completely in $100 \, s$. The rate of rise of temperature thereafter will be ........ $^\circ C/s$ (Assume no loss of heat.)

Give one example each for solid,liquid,and gas showing expansion with an increase in temperature and contraction with a decrease in temperature.

Why is cooking faster in a pressure cooker?

An aluminium container of mass $100 \, g$ contains $200 \, g$ of ice at $-20^{\circ} C$. Heat is added to the system at the rate of $100 \, cal/s$. The temperature of the system after $4$ minutes will be ....... $^{\circ} C$ (specific heat of ice $= 0.5 \, cal/g^{\circ} C$,latent heat of fusion $L = 80 \, cal/g$,specific heat of $Al = 0.2 \, cal/g^{\circ} C$,specific heat of water $= 1 \, cal/g^{\circ} C$)
