Let suppose that water experiments an entirely <em>sensible</em> heating. Hence, the heat released by the fuel is equal to the heat <em>absorbed</em> by the water because of principle of energy conservation. The heat <em>released</em> by the fuel is expressed by the following formula:
(1)
Where:
- Mass of the sample, in grams.
- Specific heat of water, in calories per gram-degree Celsius.
- Temperature change, in degrees Celsius.
If we know that , and , then the heat released by the fuel is:
The possible genotypes of a man with blood type B are BB or BO and the genotype of a woman with blood type AB is AB. The child would receive an A allele or a B allele from the mother and a B allele or an O allele from the father. Therefore, the child could not possibly be of blood type O.
- Mass of the sample, in grams.
- Specific heat of water, in calories per gram-degree Celsius.
- Temperature change, in degrees Celsius.
