Given:
The mass of water, m=15 g=0.015 kg
The initial temperature of the water, T₁=50 °C
The final temperature of the ater, T ₂=100 °C
To find:
The heat required.
Explanation:
The specific heat of water is, c=4180 J/(kg K)
The heat required to raise the temperature of the water is given by,
[tex]\begin{gathered} Q=mc\Delta T \\ =mc(T_2-T_1) \end{gathered}[/tex]
On substituting the known values,
[tex]\begin{gathered} Q=0.015\times4180\times(100-50) \\ =3135\text{ J} \end{gathered}[/tex]
Final answer:
Thus the correct answer is option C.
