Equation: c = ΔE / m Δθ
Given:
- m = 5.0 g
- ΔE = 120 J
- c = 0.38 J/g°C
To find: Δθ
Rearranging the equation to solve for Δθ: Δθ = ΔE / (m * c)
Substituting the values: Δθ = 120 J / (5.0 g * 0.38 J/g°C)
Calculation: Δθ = 120 / 1.90 ≈ 63.16 °C
Answer: The change in temperature of the copper block is approximately 63.16 °C.
