Answer:
14185.5J
Explanation:
Thermal energy can be calculated using the formula
Q = mcT where
Q is the amount of thermal energy in J
m is the mass in kg
c is the specific heat capacity in J/kg/C
T is the change in Temperature in C.
Hence by applying this formula, we get:
Q = (0.175)(4200)(24.3 - 5.00)
Q = 14185.5 J
