Problem

0.200\,\text{kg}

piece of copper at

90^{\circ}\text{C}

is dropped into a mass

m_{\text{w}}

of water at

15^{\circ}\text{C}

contained in an insulated vessel. If the final equilibrium temperature is

25^{\circ}\text{C}

, what is

m_{\text{w}}

? (Specific heats:

c_{\text{Cu}}=386\,\text{J}\,\text{kg}^{-1}\,^{\circ}\text{C}^{-1}

c_{\text{w}}=4186\,\text{J}\,\text{kg}^{-1}\,^{\circ}\text{C}^{-1}

.) a)
