Detailed Solution

$\begin{array}{l} Power P = \frac{d Q}{d t} \\ \Rightarrow P = m s \frac{d θ}{d t} (∵ d Q = m s d θ) \\ \Rightarrow \frac{80}{100} \times P = \frac{d V}{d t} \times ρ \times s \times d θ \\ \Rightarrow \frac{80}{100} \times 2000 = 100 \times 10^{- 6} \times 10^{3} \times 4200 \times (θ - 10) \\ \Rightarrow θ - 10 = 3.8 \\ ∴ θ = {13.8}^{\circ} C \end{array}$
