Thermal Properties of Mat question bank (Physics)

The heat extracted out of $x$ gram of water initially at $50°C$ to cool it down to $0°C$ is sufficient to evaporate $(1000 - x)$ gram of water also initially at $50°C$. The value of $x$ (closest integer) is _______.
(Take latent heat of water $2256\text{ kJ/kg.K}$, specific heat capacity of water $4200\text{ J/kg.K}$)

The temperature of a metal strip having coefficient of linear expansion $\alpha$ is increased from $T_1$ to $T_2$ resulting in increase of its length by $\Delta L_1$. The temperature is further increased from $T_2$ to $T_3$ such that the increase in its length is $\Delta L_2$. Given $T_3+T_1=2T_2$ and $T_2-T_1=\Delta T$, the value of $\Delta L_2$ is ______.
