An insulated container has 1.40 kg of water at a temperature of 62.0°C. The temperature of a 700-g copper block is 24.0°C. We drop the block into the water and wait until thermal equilibrium is established. Assume that the amount of heat lost to the container and the surroundings is negligible. Take the specific heats of copper and water to be 385 J/kg K and 4180 J/kg K, respectively. (a) Determine the final temperature of the water. D.
