Answer:
The volume of water that was in the kettle is 1170 
Explanation:
Given:
Power, P = 2.0 kW = 2000 W, Mass of stainless steel, 
= 710 g = 0.71 kg at temperature of 
Part A:
If it takes time, t = 3.5 minutes to reach boiling point of water 
, then from conservation of energy,
Total energy supplied by the burner = Total heat gained by the water and the stainless steel to rise from to
i.e. Pt = 
(100 - 20 ) + 
(100 - 20 )
= 
= 1.17 kg
where = 4200 J/Kgk (specific heat capacity of water), = 450 J/Kgk (specific heat capacity of steel)
But volume of water in the the kettle, v = 
∴ v = 1170

Nicholas Copernicus correctly assumed that the planets revolved around the sun but he incorrectly assumed that the planets followed a perfect circle orbit around the sun. It was later on discovered by Johannes Kepler that the planets moved around the sun following an elliptical orbit.
