Solution

The correct option is D 310 K
Solution:
1.We know that $C + 273 = K$
where $C$ is temperature in degree celsius and $K$ is temperature in kelvin scale.
2. Melting point of ice is $0^{o} C = 273 K$ whereas boiling point of water is $100^{o} C = 373 K$ .
3. Comfortable temperature of water should be of room temperature range. So out of the four options $310 K = 37^{o} C$ is the most comfortable temperature.
Hence correct option is D.

A calorimeter of negligible heat capacity contains 100 cc of water at $40^{0}$ C. The water cools to $35^{0}$ C in 5 minutes. The water is now replaced by K-oil of equal volume at $40^{0}$ C. Find the time taken for the temperature to become $35^{0}$ C under similar conditions. Specific heat capacities of water and K-oil are 4200 J $k g^{- 1} K^{- 1}$ and 2100 J $k g^{- 1} K^{- 1}$ respectively. Density of K-oil = 800 kg $m^{- 3}$ .
