You take an aluminum cylinder with a mass m = (315± 2) g out of a furnace at
temperature T = (250 ± 5)C °and place it in a large bath of cool water. The final 1
temperature of the cylinder and water is T2 = (29 ±1) C° . How much heat flows from the
cylinder to the water, and what are the absolute and relative errors in the heat transfer out of the cylinder? The heat transfer is given by Q = mc T ∆where ∆T is the change in temperature and c = (0.215± 0.005)cal/g C is ⋅t°he specific heat of aluminum.
