Solution

The correct option is B 21.54C
Let the final temperature be T
Heat gained by ice is heat required to melt ice to water at 0C and heat required to increase temperature of water from 0C to TC
=mL+m×s×(T0)
=10×80+10×1×T
Heat lost by tumbler =55×1×(40T)
By using law of calorimetry,
800+10T=55×(40T)
T=21.54C
