A family enters a winter vacation cabin has been unheated for such a long time the interior temperature is the same as the outside temperature (00C). The cabin consists of a single room of floor area 4m by 4m and height 3m. The room contains one 2kW electric heater. Assuming that the room is perfectly airtight and that all the heat from the electric heater is absorbed by the air, none escaping through the walls or being absorbed by the furnishing, how long after the heater is turned on will the temperature reach the comfort level of 24
