When a block of iron floats in Hg at 0°C, a fraction K1 of its volumen= is submerged, while at temperature of 60°C a fraction K2 is seen to be submersed. If the coefficient of volume expansion of iron is γFe and that of mercury is γHg, then the ratio K1K2 can be expressed as:

(1) 1+60γFe1+60γHg

(2) 1-60γFe1+60γHg

(3) 1+60γFe1-60γHg

(4) 1+60γHe1-60γFe

Two identical bodies are made of a material whose heat capacity increases with temperature. One of these is at \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), while the other one is at \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). If the two bodies are brought into contact, then assuming no heat loss, the final common temperature will be:

1. \(50^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
2.  more than \(50^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) 
3. less than \(50^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) but greater than \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) 
4. \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
