Answer:

Final temperature, T2 = 131895°C

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 50g

Initial temperature = 20°C

Quantity of heat = 5275J

Specific heat capacity = 0.50 J/g°C

To find the final temperature;

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

[tex] Q = mcdt[/tex]

Where;

Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.

m represents the mass of an object.

c represents the specific heat capacity of water.

dt represents the change in temperature.

Making dt the subject of formula, we have;

[tex] dt = \frac {Q}{mc} [/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] dt = \frac {5275}{50*0.50} [/tex]

[tex] dt = \frac {5275}{25} [/tex]

dt = 131875°C

Now, the final temperature T2 is;

But, dt = T2 - T1

T2 = dt + T1

T2 = 131875 + 20

T2 = 131895°C

The final temperature when a glass piece absorbs heat  5275 joules  will be  T2= 231 C

What is heat capacity?

The heat capacity is defined as the amount of heat any material can absorb when the temperature is changed to unit quantity.

Given the following data;

Mass = 50g

Initial temperature = 20°C

Quantity of heat = 5275J

Specific heat capacity = 0.50 J/g°C

To find the final temperature;

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

[tex]Q= mc(T_2-T_1)[/tex]

Where;

Q = represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.

M= represents the mass of an object.

C= represents the specific heat capacity  

T1= initial temperature

T2 = Final temperature

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex]Q=mc(T_2-T_1)[/tex]

[tex](T_2-T_1)=\dfrac{Q}{mc}[/tex]

[tex](T_2-T_1)=\dfrac{5275}{50\times 0.50}[/tex]

[tex]T_2=211+T_1[/tex]

[tex]T_2=211+20=231 ^oc[/tex]

Thus the final temperature when a glass piece absorbs heat  5275 joules  will be  T2= 231 C
