Practice question
Question
What determines the final temperature when two objects of different temperatures are mixed in a calorimeter?
Explanation
The final temperature is determined by the principle of conservation of energy, where heat lost by the hotter object equals heat gained by the colder one, reaching thermal equilibrium. As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to Conservation of heat energy. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option D is scientifically correct.
