Answer:

Cp = 4756 [J/kg*°C]

Explanation:

In order to calculate the specific heat of water, we must use the equation of energy for heat or heat transfer equation.

Q = m*Cp*(T_f - T_i)/t

where:

Q = heat transfer = 2.6 [kW] = 2600[W]

m = mass of the water = 0.8 [kg]

Cp = specific heat of water [J/kg*°C]

T_f  = final temperature of the water = 100 [°C]

T_i = initial temperature of the water = 18 [°C]

t = time = 120 [s]

Now clearing the Cp, we have:

Cp = Q*t/(m*(T_f - T_i))

Now replacing

Cp = (2600*120)/(0.8*(100-18))

Cp = 4756 [J/kg*°C]

describes how the color and texture of a surface affect absorption and reflection of solar radiation?
Wewaii [24]

Most of the radiation, however, is absorbed by the earth's surface. ... Every surface on earth absorbs and reflects energy at varying degrees, based on its color and texture. Dark-colored objects absorb more visible radiation; light-colored objects reflect more visible radiation.
