Protons energy converted into heat


An accelerator's beam is E = 100MeV protons that hit target that is made of iron. Find the amount of time it takes for the target mass (m = 1kg) to raise its temperature by 100K if the current of the beam is I = 20µA. Note that the specific heat of iron is c = 500J/kg K, and assume that all proton's energy is converted into heat.
