0.6 kg of ice at `-10^(@)C` is place in a copper calorimeter at `350^(@)C`. After some time when thermal equilibrium is attained, calorimeter contains 550 g of ice with some water. Find the water equivalent of the calorimeter. Given that the specific heat of copper is 420 J/kgK, and that of ice `2100J//kg^(@)C` and latent heat of ice is `3.32xx10^(-5)J//kg` check the answer
