There is a liquid of mass m and specific heat capacity c and temperature T. Another liquid of mass `m/2` and specific heat 2C is heated to a temperature 2T. If these two liquids are mixed, the resulting temperature of the mixture is (assume no change in the state of liquids)

A

`(2/3)^T`

B

`(8/5)^T`

C

`(3/5)^T`

D

`(3/2)^T`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Let T be the final temperature of the mixture. Then, Heat gained =Heat lost
`mc(T. – T) =m/2 (2c) (2T - T.)`
`T. = 3/2T`
