to Bombay and loaded on the ship which sailed to London. The sea voyage to London would have taken around six months (one way). Madho Singh II was poised and a devout person who drank only Ganges water on his trip to Engla He knew that the Ganges water has the mystic and amazing potency of not getting spoiled or infected even as you stored it in a closed container (If you do not believe it, try storing the ordinat chlorinated tap water for a week vis-à-vis the Ganges water!). In addition, he knew that Ganges water has other benefits which may even be beyond the exact explanations of the then modern scientific understanding.

I need the answer as soon as possible
The 'Ganga-jalis' at City Palace, Jaipur Contained within the Maharaja's City Palace in Jaipur are the two largest single items of sterling silver, two huge water vessels known as Gangajalis.. Each of the silver urns has a capacity of 4,091 L, weighs 345 kg and stands at 1.6 metres, recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the largest single object constructed from silver. They were created over a two year period between 1894 and 1896 by two Jaipur silversmiths and were fashioned from a total of 14,000 silver coins. The pair of silver water jars avoided the use of soldering sections together, so they are considered as a solid single piece of silver. The silver urns were constructed under the direction of maharaja Madho Singh Il's for his visit to London 1902 to attend the coronation of Edward VII. These silver containers were filled with Ganges water, shipped to Bombay and loaded on the ship which sailed to London. The sea voyage to London would have taken around six months (one way). Madho Singh Il was poised and a devout person who drank only Ganges water on his trip to England. He knew that the Ganges water has the mystic and amazing potency of not getting spoiled or infected even as you stored it in a closed container (If you do not believe it, try storing the ordinary chlorinated tap water for a week vis-à-vis the Ganges water!). In addition, he knew that Ganges water has other benefits which may even be beyond the exact explanations of the then modern scientific understanding. Assuming that these Gangajalis were kept on the ship deck exposed to the sunlight, the average diurnal irradiation (for 8 hours) of the sun being 400 W/m?. Further, as far as the exposed surface area and thickness of the jar is concerned, it can be assumed to be that of an equivalent spherical container holding the same volume. The shining outer silver surface can be assumed to have a reflectivity of 89%. Given that the thermal conductivity of pure silver is 407 W/mk, estimate the temperature of the Ganges water at the end of the day, that was given to the Maharaja to drink.
