A long glass rod A is initially at 21.0°C. A second rod B is identical to rod A and has the same mass and initial temperature as A. The same amount of heat is supplied to both rods and the two rods A and B reach final temperatures of 86.3°C and 215.0°C respectively. If the specific heat of glass is 0.2007 kcal/(kg · °C), what is the specific heat of the material from which rod B is made? kcal/(kg · °C)

During heavy exercise, the body pumps 2.00 L of blood per minute to the surface, where it is cooled by 2.00C. What is the rate of heat transfer from this forced convection alone, assuming blood has the same specific heat as water and its density is 1050kg/m3 ?
For the human body, what is the rate of heat transfer by conduction through the body's tissue with the following conditions: the tissue thickness is 3.00 cm, the difference in temperature is 2.00 , and the skin area is 1.50 m2. How does this compare with the average heat transfer rate to the body resulting from an energy intake of about 2400 kcal per day? (No exercise is included.)

A metal rod is 10 cm long and has a diameter of 2 cm one end is in contact with steam at 100 deg C while the other end contacts a block of ice at 0 deg C.
