    An iron piece falls from a height of 1 km on the ground. If all the energy is converted into heat, the rise of temperature of the iron piece will be (specific heat of iron\[=0.1\text{ }kcal/kg{}^\circ C\])

    A)  \[0.233{}^\circ C\]         

    B)  \[2.33{}^\circ C\]

    C)  \[23.8{}^\circ C\]            

    D)  \[233{}^\circ C\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    Kinetic energy = heat \[\frac{1}{2}\frac{m{{v}^{2}}}{4.2}=ms\Delta \theta \] \[\frac{1}{2}\frac{m\times 2gh}{4.2}=ms\Delta \theta \] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{mgh}{4.2}=ms\Delta \theta \] \[\frac{10\times 1000}{4.2}=0.1\times 1000\times \Delta \theta \] \[\Delta \theta =23.8{}^\circ C\]
