A thermally insulated container (closed system) is dropped from a certain height and filled with water so that it collides inelastically against the ground. what should be the value of the height in m so that the temperature of the water increases by 0.5 °C? Suppose that all the energy lost in the fall is invested in increasing the temperature of the water. I considered a gravitational acceleration of 9.81 m/s2.

A thermally insulated container (closed system) is dropped from a certain height and
filled with water so that it collides inelastically against the ground. what should be the value
of the height in m so that the temperature of the water increases by 0.5 °C? Suppose that
all the energy lost in the fall is invested in increasing the temperature of the water.
I considered a gravitational acceleration of 9.81 m/s2.
