A ball of lead of mass 1kg drops from a height of 46 m, hits the floor and remains there at rest. What is the increase of temperature of the lead?  specific Heat Capacity  of the lead is  

g = 9.8 m/s2

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given:
mass of ball = 1 kg

height h=46 m

specific heat capacity of lead c =0.128 J/g oC =128 J/kg oC

 

Step 2

Formula used:

Q= mc(T2-T1)

also, potential energy PE = mgh
