You have a metal block with a mass of 147.1 g, a specific heat of 678.2 Jkg-1K-1, a thermal conductivity of 128.1 Wm-1K-1, an emissivity of 0.900 in air and an initial temperature of 80.3°C. The block is shaped as a square prism with a length of 5.24 cm and a cross-sectional area of 10.0 cm2. You start by dropping this metal block into an insulated 0.574 L bucket of water. The water is initially at 3.78°C.
What is the final temperature of the water?
