You have available three blocks of different material, at various temperatures. They are, respectively, a 2 kg block of iron at 600 K, a 3 kg block of copper at 800 K and a 10 kg block of granite at 300 K. The heat capacities for the three materials are 0.460 (iron), 0.385 (copper), and 0.790 (granite), in kj/(kg*K), all independent of temperature. For solids, the heat capacities at constant pressure and constant volume can be assumed to be equal, Cp=Cv. what is the minimum temperature that could be obtained in any one of the block? what is the maximum temperature that could be obtained? no heat or work interactions with the enviroment are allowed.

Answer:

max temp = 711.32 k

mini temp = 331.29 k

Explanation:

Given data:

2kg block of Iron : temperature = 600k , C = 0.460 kJ/kgk

3 kg block of copper : temp = 800k ,  C = 0.385 KJ /kgk

10 kg block of granite : temp = 300k , C = 0.790 KJ/kgk

Cp = Cv at constant pressure and constant volume

Determine the minimum temperature that is obtained in any one of the block

considering the heat transfer equation

Q = mC ( T2 - T1 )

attached below is a detailed solution of the problem
