You are trying to get a pot of water to boiling. The pot of water has 2kgs of water in it, and starts at
20C. You want to get the pot to the boiling point
(100c), and the specific heat of water is 4.18 J per
KIKG (or 4.18J per kilogram per 1 degree of
temperature increase). How many joules of
energy do you need to heat up the water? If your
pot absorbs 5 Joules per second from the stove
burner, how long will it take to reach the boiling
point?
