Question
The cold object the hot object enclosed in one box of heat-resistant material.
- What changes will occur in the two objects when temperature flows from those objects?
- Which principle can show that the energy exchange takes place between two objects only when kept in isolated system?

Solution
1. Temperature of cold object increases due to gain of heat energy.
2. At the same time, temperature of hot object decreases due to loss of heat energy.
3. The process of heat exchange continues till both the objects acquire the same temperature.- Principle of heat exchange can show that the energy exchange takes place between two objects only when kept in isolated system.

A child running a temperature of 101°F is given an antipyrin (i.e. a medicine that lowers fever) which causes an increase in the rate of evaporation of sweat from his body. If the fever is brought down to 98 °F in 20 min, what is the average rate of extra evaporation caused, by the drug? Assume the evaporation mechanism to be the only way by which heat is lost. The mass of the child is 30 kg. The specific heat of human body is approximately the same as that of water, and latent heat of evaporation of water at that temperature is about 580 cal g–1.
