Three liquids with masses $m_1, m_2, m_3$ are thoroughly mixed. If their specific heats are $c_1, c_2, c_3$ and their temperatures are $T_1, T_2, T_3$ respectively,then the temperature of the mixture is

  • A
    $\frac{c_1 T_1 + c_2 T_2 + c_3 T_3}{m_1 c_1 + m_2 c_2 + m_3 c_3}$
  • B
    $\frac{m_1 c_1 T_1 + m_2 c_2 T_2 + m_3 c_3 T_3}{m_1 c_1 + m_2 c_2 + m_3 c_3}$
  • C
    $\frac{m_1 c_1 T_1 + m_2 c_2 T_2 + m_3 c_3 T_3}{m_1 T_1 + m_2 T_2 + m_3 T_3}$
  • D
    $\frac{m_1 T_1 + m_2 T_2 + m_3 T_3}{c_1 T_1 + c_2 T_2 + c_3 T_3}$

$A$ piece of copper of mass $250 \ g$ at $500^{\circ} C$ is put inside a calorimeter of water equivalent $50 \ g$ containing $200 \ g$ of water at $20^{\circ} C$. At thermal equilibrium,the temperature of the mixture is $60^{\circ} C$. The specific heat of copper (in $J / kg \cdot ^{\circ} C$) is approximately: [Specific heat of water $= 4200 \ J / kg \cdot ^{\circ} C$]

$A$ liquid of mass $2m$ and specific heat $C$ is heated to a temperature $4T$. Another liquid of mass $m$ and specific heat $2C$ is heated to a temperature $T$. If these two liquids are mixed,the resulting temperature of the mixture is:

Water is kept in a thermally insulated container at a temperature of $-10^{\circ}C$. If a small piece of ice is dropped into it, what will be the ratio of the mass of ice formed from the water to the initial mass of water?

$300 \text{ g}$ of water at $25^{\circ}C$ is added to $100 \text{ g}$ of ice at $0^{\circ}C$. The final temperature of the mixture is (in $^{\circ}C$)
