At Deoprayag (Garhwal, UP) river Alaknanda mixes with the river Bhagirathi and becomes river Ganga. Suppose Alaknanda has a width of 12m, Bhagirathi has a width of 8m and Ganga has a width of 16m. Assume that the depth of water is same in the three rivers. Let the average speed of water in Alaknanda be 20km/h and in Bhagirathi be 16km/h. Find the average speed of water in the river Ganga.

→Four 2cm × 2cm × 2cm cubes of ice are taken out from a refrigerator and are put in 200ml of a drink at 10°C.
- Find the temperature of the drink when thermal equilibrium is attained in it.
- If the ice cubes do not melt completely, find the amount melted. Assume that no heat is lost to the outside of the drink and that the container has negligible heat capacity. Density of ice = 900kg-m-3, density of the drink = 1000kg-m-3, specific heat capacity of the drink = 4200Jkg-1-K-1, latent heat of fusion of ice = 3.4 × 105J-kg-1.
