Andrews [41]

Answer: 13.94 tons/s

Explanation:

On adding heat energy to a substance, the temperature would be changed by a particular amount. This relationship between heat energy and temperature is often different for each material. The specific heat, is a value that describes how they relate.

Heat energy = mass flow rate * specific heat * Δ T

Q = MC (ΔΦ)

Heat energy, Q= 3.5*10^8J

Mass flow rate, M= ?

Specific heat, C= 4184j/KgC

Change in temperature, ΔΦ= 6°C

M = Q/CΔΦ

M = (3.5*10^8)/4184*6

M = 13942kg/s

M = 13.94 tons/s
