A metal block of density 600 kg m⁻³ and mass 1.2 kg is suspended through a spring of spring constant 200 N m⁻¹. The spring-block system is dipped in water kept in a vessel. The water has a mass of 260 g and the bloc is at a height 40 cm above the bottom of the vessel. If the support of the spring is broken, what will be the rise in the temperature of the water.

In figure, a body A of mass m slides on plane inclined at angle θ₁ to the horizontal and µ₁ is the coefficent of friction between A and the plane. A is connected by a light string passing over a frictionless pulley to another body B, also of mass m, sliding on a frictionless plane inclined at angle θ₂ to the horizontal.
