Detailed Solution

Let T be the temperature when thermal equilibrium has reached.

Heat gained by ice to be converted to water at 00C

=mL+m×c×(T0)=10×80+10×1×T

Heat lost by tumbler and its contents = 55 x (40 - T)

Using principle of calorimetry, heat gained = heat lost

10×80+10×1×T=55×(40T)

 65T=2200800=1400

 T=14006521.5C22C
