The air in a living room has a mass of 60 Kg and a specific heat of 1,020 J/kg°C. What is the change in thermal energy of the air when it warms from 20°C to 25°C?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Q = 306 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass, m = 60 kg

Specific heat, c = 1020 J/kg°C

The temperature changes from 20°C to 25°C.

Let Q be the change in thermal energy. The formula for the heat released is given by :

[tex]Q=mc\Delta T[/tex]

Put all the values,

[tex]Q=60\times 1020\times (25-20)\\\\Q=306000\ J\\\\or\\\\Q=306\ kJ[/tex]

So, 306 kJ is the change in thermal energy.
