410 J

First you need to find the specific heat capacity (c) for iron, which is 0.461 J/g-oC (https://www.engineersedge.com/materials/specific_heat_capacity_of_metals_13259.htm).

The equation to use is Q=m x c x delta t, where Q is energy, m is mass, c is specific heat, and delta t is change in temperature. Delta t = Tfinal - Tinitial = 25 oC - 10 oC = 15 oC.

Plug the known values into the equation and solve.

Q = 59 g x 0.461 J/g-oC x 15 oC = 410 J (rounded to two significant figures)

How do you use kelvin scale?

The Kelvin scale measures temperature. You can use it the same way you would use the Fahrenheit scale or the Celsius scale, but it also has an additional use. Since the Kelvin scale starts at the true zero of temperature, when there is no random thermal motion, rather than starting at some arbitrary point such as the freezing point of water (Celsius) or the coldest temperature that was obtainable in the laboratory at the time the Fahrenheit scale was first devised, you can make much more meaningful comparisons in Kelvin. If something has twice the temperature in Kelvin than something else has, then it actually is twice as hot. That is not true of other temperature scales. 20oC is not twice as hot as 10oC. But 20oK actually is twice as hot as 10oK.


Predict whether a greater amount of energy will be trans ferred as heat between 1 kg of water at 10C and a freezer at -15C or between 1kg of water at 60C and an oven at 65C?

The formula for determining the amount of heat energy is q = m x C x ΔT, where q = amount of heat energy gained or lost by a substance, m = mass of substance in grams, C = heat capacity (J/g •oC), and ΔT is the change in temperature. If all other variables are the same, then the greatest change in temperature will cause the greatest amount of energy gained or lost. The water that went from 10oC to -15oC had the greatest change in temperature and the greatest change in energy.

How hot can it be in the polar habitats?

Hottest temperature in a polar bear habitat can be a balmy 0oC in spring to 20oC in the summer. In winter, the warmest it can get is around -10oC.

If 100 calories of heat are absorbed by 10g of water at 15 degrees Celsius its temperature will be 21 or 23 C or 25 C or 27 C and explain the process?

By definition one calory is needed to heat up one gram of water exactly one degree celsius.So 100 cal will heat 10 g. of water up for 10oC:Temperature after heating will be 15 oC + 10oC = 25 oC


What is the Fahrenheit equivalent to negative ten degrees Celsius?

To convert from C to F, multiply the C temperature by 9/5 and then add 32: -10oC = (9/5 x -10) + 32 = -18 + 32 = 14oF


What year class is the strongest?

10kp is the strongest 10rm weakest 10ks weaker 10oc weakest


Which is colder 10 Celsius or 10 Fahrenheit?

Apply what you know about the temperature scales: 10oC is above freezing (of water), and 10oF is below, so 10oF is colder. To find the exact numbers, use the conversion equation: oF = (9/5)oC + 32. Here, (9/5)10 + 32 = 50, so 10oC = 50oF


What is the body temperature of a butterfly?

Honey bees do not have a 'normal' body temperature. A honey bee needs an internal body temperature of 35°C to fly. This is also the temperature within the cluster of bees on a brood comb. This temperature needs to be maintained to develop the brood, and it is the optimal temperature for the creation of wax. While flying, a bee's flight muscles generate heat which will maintain its body temperature. The optimal air temperature for foraging is 22 to 25oC, but below about 13oC the bee will lose body heat faster than it can generate it. At high temperatures the bee uses a form of evaporative cooling to get rid of heat through its mouth. Under hot conditions, heat from the thorax is dissipated through the head. The bee regurgitates a droplet of hot internal fluid -- a 'honeycrop droplet' -- which immediately cools the head temperature by up to 10oC. Below about 10oC, bees become immobile due to the cold and above 38oC activity again slows. Honey bees can tolerate temperatures up to 50oC for short periods.
