प्रश्न
In a calorimeter, the heat given by the hot object is assumed to be equal to the heat taken by the cold object. Does it mean that heat of the two objects taken together remains constant?

उत्तर
Yes, heat of the two objects taken together remains constant. If no heat is lost to the surroundings, the heat of the two bodies taken together actually remains conserved.
