Water of volume 2L in a closed container...

Water of volume 2L in a closed container is heated with a coil of 1 kW. While water is heated, the container loses energy at a rate of 160 J/s. In how much time will the temperature of water rise from `27^(@)C" to "77^(@)C`? (Specific heat of water is 4.2 kJ / kg and that of the container is negligible).

A

6 min 2 s

B

14 min

C

7 min

A 210 W heater is used to heat 100 g water. The time required to raise the temperature of this water from 25^(@)C to 100^(@)C is (specific heat capacity of water =4200" J/Kg-"^(@)C )

1 g of steam at 100^(@)C is passed into a calorimeter of water equivalent 10g containing water of mass 90 g. Find the resultant temperature of the mixture if the initial temperature of water is 27^(@)C .

The quantity of heat which can rise the temperature of x gm of a substance through t_(1)""^(@)C can rise the temperature of y gm of water through t_(2)""^(@)C is same. The ratio of specific heats of the substances is
