A platinum resistance thermometer records 3.0\(\Omega\) at 0oC and 8.0\(\Omega\) at 100oC. If it records 6.0\(\Omega\) in a certain environment, The temperature of the medium is
A 500W heater is used to heat 0.6kg of water from 25ºC to 100ºC in t\(_1\) seconds. If another 1000W heater is used to heat 0.2kg of water from 10ºC to 100ºC in t\(_2\), seconds, find \(\frac{t_1}{t_2}\)
How many grams of water at 17oC must be added to 42g of ice at 0oC to melt the ice completely? [specific latent heat of fusion of ice = 3.4 x 105Jkg-1, specific heat capacity of water = 4200Jkg-1k-1]
