A vessel containing 100 g ice at 0^(@)C is suspended in a room where temperature is 35^(@)C . It was found that the entire ice melted in 10 hour. Now the same vessel containing 100 g of water at 0^(@)C is suspended in the same room. How much time will it take for the temperature of water to rise to 0.5^(@)C . Neglect the heat capacity of the vessel. Specific heat of water and specific latent heat of fusion of ice are 1 cal g^(-1) .^(@)C^(-1) and 80 cal g^(-1) respectively.

An electric kettle is filled with 1.3 kg of water at 20^(@)C . The power of the heating coil of the kettle is 2.0 KW. After switching it on the water begins to boil in 220s . If the kettle was kept on for a further interval of Delta t it was observed that only 200g water remained in the kettle and remaining water vaporized (the vapor is allowed to escape through a small vent). The specific latent heat of vaporization of water at 100^(@)C (boiling point) is L = 2.26 KJ//g . Calculate the specific heat capacity of water and the interval Delta t . Assume that heat supplied by the heater is completely absorbed by the water.
