0cdot1 kg of a substance is taken as sample and combusted on sample holder of a bomb calorimeter. The temperature of 1 kg of ice present in external chamber has risen from 0^(@)C" to "50^(@)C. What is the calorific value of the given sample? (Given that specific heat capacity of water = 42 J kg^(-1)K^(-1)) Specific latent heat of fusion of ice =336000 J kg^(-1)

Answer»

Solution :Kinetic enrgy at the bottom = Potential ENERGY (mgh) at the given height.
Heat gained `=(80)/(100)xxmgh=ms Delta theta`
`rArr""Delta theta =(80)/(100)xx(gh)/(s)`
`"Given ",g=1000 CM s^(-2) = 10 ms^(-2)`
`h= 6 m and s=2 JKG^(-1) K^(-1).`
`rArr""Deltatheta=(80)/(100)xx(10xx6)/(2)=24^(@)C or 24 K.`
