| 1. | Heat lost by part at higher temperature equals the heat gained by part at lower temperature. |
| 2. | Heat lost by part at higher temperature is always less than the heat gained by part at lower temperature. |
| 3. | Heat lost by part at higher temperature is always more than heat gained by part at lower temperature. |
| 4. | Heat lost by part at higher temperature is never equal to heat gained by part at lower temperature. |
5 gm of water at 30°C and 5 gm of ice at –20°C are mixed together in a calorimeter. The water equivalent of the calorimeter is negligible and the specific heat and the latent heat of ice are 0.5 cal/gm-°C and 80 cal/gm respectively. The final temperature of the mixture is:
1. 0°C
2. –8°C
3. –4°C
4. 2°C

In a steel factory, it is found that to maintain \(M\) kg of iron in the molten state at its melting point, an input power \(P\) watt is required. When the power source is turned off, the sample completely solidifies in time \(t\) seconds. The latent heat of the fusion of iron is:
| 1. | \(\dfrac{2Pt}{M}\) | 2. | \(\dfrac{Pt}{2M}\) |
| 3. | \(\dfrac{Pt}{M}\) | 4. | \(\dfrac{PM}{t}\) |
