15.
In Joule's experiment, an insulated container contains 20 kg of water initially at 25°C. It is stirred by an agitator, which is made to turn by a slowly falling body weighing 40 kg through a height of 4 m. The process is repeated 500 times. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 ms-2. Neglecting the heat capacity of agitator, the temperature of water (in °C) is
40.5
34.4

Basic Formula Used => n.m.g.h = m.cp.dt.

Shakti Singh said:   9 years ago
The formula is m*g*h = m*cp* (T1 - T2).
