A 5 kg block of copper (specific heat capacity = 385 J/kg°C) at 20°C is given
46,200 J of energy. What will be its final temperature?

Explanation:

When heat energy is supplied to a substance, its temperature increases according to the equation:

where

Q is the energy supplied

m is the mass of the substance

C is the specific heat capacity

is the increase in temperature

For the block of copper in this problem:

m = 5 kg

C = 385 J/kg°C

Q = 46,200 J

Therefore, the increase in temperature is

And since the initial temperature is 20°C, the final temperature will be

igneous rocks also form where plates converge. the subducting plate melts as it sinks into the crust of the earth, and the melt rises into the overriding plate forming volcanoes. metamorphic rocks are formed mainly in the lithosphere, wherever there is high pressure and high temperature. -woods
