QUESTION: Problem 26P
Two iron bolts of equal mass—one at 100.°C, the other at 55°C—are placed in an insulated container. Assuming the heat capacity of the container is negligible, what is the final temperature inside the container (c of iron = 0.450 J/g·K)?
ANSWER:
Solution 26P:
Here, we are going to calculate the final temperature inside the container.
Step 1:
The heat capacity is directly related with the temperature change.
Where c is the heat capacity, q is the heat absorbed by the object
m is the mass of the object
is the change in temperature =(
