$A$ lead bullet of mass $50 \ g$ at a temperature of $30^{\circ}C$ is fired vertically upwards with a speed of $840 \ m/s$. When the bullet returns to the point of departure,it strikes a large block of ice at $0^{\circ}C$. How much ice (in $g$) will melt? (Specific heat of lead is $0.02 \ cal/g^{\circ}C$,latent heat of fusion of ice is $80 \ cal/g$,and assume all energy is used to melt the ice.)

  • A
    $62.7$
  • B
    $55$
  • C
    $52.875$
  • D
    $50.67$

Statement $(I)$: $A$ device in which heat measurement can be made is called a calorimeter.
Statement $(II)$: Skating is possible on snow due to the formation of water below the skates. Water is formed due to the increase of temperature and ice melts.
Statement $(III)$: Two bodies at different temperatures are mixed in a calorimeter. The total internal energy of the two bodies remains conserved.
Which of the following is correct?

$A$ lead ball moving with a velocity $V$ strikes a wall and stops. If $50\%$ of its energy is converted into heat,then what will be the increase in temperature? (Specific heat of lead is $S$)

$M \ kg$ of water at $t^{\circ} C$ is divided into two parts so that one part of mass $m \ kg$ when converted into ice at $0^{\circ} C$ would release enough heat to vaporize the other part. Then $\frac{m}{M}$ is equal to (Specific heat of water $= 1 \ cal \ g^{-1} {}^{\circ} C^{-1}$,Latent heat of fusion of ice $= 80 \ cal \ g^{-1}$,Latent heat of steam $= 540 \ cal \ g^{-1}$)

$A$ beaker is completely filled with water at $4^{\circ}C$. It will overflow if it is:

The resistances of the platinum wire of a platinum resistance thermometer at the ice point and steam point are $8 \Omega$ and $10 \Omega$ respectively. After inserting in a hot bath of temperature $400^{\circ} C$,the resistance of the platinum wire is: (in $\Omega$)
