$A$ hammer of mass $1 \, kg$ having a speed of $50 \, m/s$ hits an iron nail of mass $200 \, g$. If the specific heat of iron is $0.105 \, cal/g^{\circ}C$ and half of the kinetic energy is converted into heat,the rise in temperature of the nail is ........ $^{\circ}C$.

Dry ice is

If $1\; g$ of steam at $100^{\circ}C$ is mixed with $1\; g$ of ice at $0^{\circ}C$,then the resultant temperature of the mixture is ........ $^{\circ}C$.

$A$ lead bullet at $27\ ^oC$ just melts when stopped by an obstacle. Assuming that $25\%$ of heat is absorbed by the obstacle,the velocity of the bullet at the time of striking is ....... $m/s$. (Melting point of lead $= 327\ ^oC$,specific heat of lead $= 0.03\ cal/g\ ^oC$,latent heat of fusion of lead $= 6\ cal/g$,and $J = 4.2\ J/cal$)

$A$ liquid at $30^{\circ} C$ is poured very slowly into a calorimeter at $110^{\circ} C$. The boiling point of the liquid is $80^{\circ} C$. It is observed that the first $5 \ gm$ of the liquid evaporates completely. After adding another $80 \ gm$ of the liquid,the equilibrium temperature is found to be $50^{\circ} C$. What is the ratio of the latent heat of the liquid to its specific heat? [Neglect heat exchange with the surroundings]

The freezing point of a liquid decreases when pressure is increased,if the liquid:
