M = 20.0kg, the mass of the block.
c = 1700 J/(kg-°C), the specific heat
ΔT = 25 - 15 = 10 °C = 10 K, the change in temperature.

The change in thermal energy is
Q = (20.0 \, kg)*(1700 \,  \frac{J}{kg-C} )*(10 \, C) = 340 \times 10^{3} \, J

Answer: 340 kJ (or 340,000 J)

Which is an example of current electricity
Reil [10]

Answer:

A or B you choose

Explanation:

This is called current electricity or an electric current. A lightning bolt is one example of an electric current, although it does not last very long. Electric currents are also involved in powering all the electrical appliances that you use, from washing machines to flashlights and from telephones to MP3 players.

what is an electrical current, amp, ampere Current is the flow of electrons. When a circuit is closed then a current of electrons can flow and when a circuit is open then no current can flow. We can measure the flow of electrons just like you can measure the flow of water through a pipe.
