The specific heat capacity of steel is 450 J/kg?°C. Show

Chapter 7, Problem 38TAS

(choose chapter or problem)

The specific heat capacity of steel is \(450 \quad \mathrm{J} / \mathrm{kg} \cdot{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Show that the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of a 10-kg piece of steel from \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) to \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) is 450,000 J. How does this compare with the heat needed to raise the temperature of the same mass of water through the same temperature difference?
