QUESTION:

Shown in Fig. P3.86 is an insulated copper block that receives energy at a rate of \(100 \mathrm{~W}\) from an embedded resistor. If the block has a volume of \(10^{-3} \mathrm{~m}^3\) and an initial temperature of \(20^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), how long would it take, in minutes, for the temperature to reach \(60^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) ? Data for copper are provided in Table A-19.
