Two copper bolts of equal mass - one at 82°C, the other at 21°C - are placed in an insulated container. Assuming the heat capaci
topjm [15]

Answer : The final temperature inside the container is, 51.5^oC

Explanation :

In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

q_1=-q_2

m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)

As per question, heat capacity of the container is negligible and mass is also equal. So, the formula will be:

(T_f-T_1)=-(T_f-T_2)

where,

c_1 = specific heat of copper

c_2 = specific heat of another copper

m_1 = mass of copper

m_2 = mass of another copper

T_f = final temperature of mixture = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of copper = 82^oC

T_2 = initial temperature of another copper = 21^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

(T_f-82)^oC=-(T_f-21)^oC

T_f=51.5^oC

Therefore, the final temperature inside the container is, 51.5^oC
