A copper cylinder with a mass of 125 g and temperature of 345°C is cooled by dropping it into a glass beaker containing 565 g of water initially at 20.0°C
The mass of the beaker is 50.0 g and the specific heat of the glass is 840 J/kg?K. What is the final equilibrium temperature of the system, assuming the cooling takes place very quickly, so that no energy is lost to the air? The specific heat of copper is 385 J/kg?K and that of water is 4190 J/kg?K.
26.4°C
