A boy took 10 kg of water and raised its temperature to 90⁰ C. He add m2 kg of water at 20⁰ C and the mixture attained a temperature of 50⁰ C. Determine the value of m2. (Assume the containers did not get heated. Specific heat capacity of water = 4200Jkg^-1k^-1)

joseph
Heat lost = heat gained
10 x 4200(90 – 40) =m2 x 4200 (50 – 20)
500 = 30 m2
500/30 =m2
16.67 kg =m2
