$250\,g$ of water and an equal volume of alcohol of mass $200\,g$ are placed successively in the same calorimeter and cool from $60^{\circ}C$ to $55^{\circ}C$ in $130\,s$ and $67\,s$ respectively. If the water equivalent of the calorimeter is $10\,g$,then the specific heat of alcohol in $\text{cal/g}^{\circ}C$ is:

$A$ beaker of height $H$ is made up of a material whose coefficient of linear thermal expansion is $3\alpha$. It is filled up to the brim by a liquid whose coefficient of thermal expansion is $\alpha$. If now the beaker along with its contents is uniformly heated through a small temperature $T$,the level of liquid will reduce by (given $\alpha T << 1$):
