a metallic sphere of mass 100 gram and at hundred degree celsius is dropped in a bucket full of water weight of water is 1.5 kg and it is a temperature of 15 degrees celsius what is the resulting temperature of the system is that specific heat of the metallic sphere is 1.3 into 10 raise to 3 joule per kg degree Celsius and specific heat of water is 4.2 into 10 raise to 3 joule per kg degree Celsius

Solution:
Mass of the metallic sphere (m1 )= 0.1 kg Initial temperature of the metallic sphere=1000C Final temperature=T0C Change in temperature (ΔT1 )= 100-T  Amount of heat lost by metallic sphere= m1×c1×ΔT1= 0.1kg×1.3×103×( 100-T )Mass of the water m2  =1.5 kg  Initial temperature of water = 150C Final temperature=T0C Change in temperature (ΔT2 )= T-15 Specific heat capacity of water (c2 )=4.2×103 Amount of heat gained by  water    = m2×c2×ΔT2    =1.5×4.2×103×T-15 At steady state, heat lost by metallic sphere= heat gained by waterTherefore 0.1kg×1.3×103×( 100-T )= 1.5×4.2×103×(T-15) 0.13(100-T)=6.3(T-15)13-0.13T=6.3T-94.5107.5=6.43TT=16.710C
