Heat transfer, specific heat. and calorimetrya 1.28-kg sample of water at 10.0 "c is in a calorimeter. you drop a piece of steel with a mass of 0.385 kg at 215 "c into it. after the sizzling subsides, what is the final equilibrium temperature? (make the reasonable assumptions that any steamproduced condenses into liquid water during the process of equilibration and that the evaporation and condensation don’taffect the outcome. as we’ll see in the next section.)

Explanation:

Given:

Now by the law of conservation of energy, the heat released by the steel is equal to the heat absorbed by the water:

  distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

explanation:

the instantaneous velocity = change in position/time taken

the slope of the graph should give instantaneous velocity.

  slope of a graph = change in value of y -axis / change in values of x -axis

  comparing both the equations

    change in value of y -axis = change in position

  change in values of x -axis = time taken

so position values should be on the y axis and time values should be on the x axis.

distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.
