A piece of zinc was lying outside and had a temperature of 26 degrees C. Later that day the sun came out and the temperature increased to 36 degrees C. If the piece of zinc is only 0. 15 kg, find the thermal energy. NOTE: Zinc has a specific heat of 380 J/kg degrees C). I need The Equation used and The Answer

Answer: 570 J

Explanation:

The amount of heat gained by the piece of zinc can be calulctaed using   ∆Q = mc∆T

=> ∆T = 36-26 = 10°C

m = 0.15 kg, s = 380J/kg/°C

=> ∆Q = 0.15 x 380 x 10

= 570J
