Question:

The hot dog cooker described in the chapter heats hot dogs by connecting them to \(120 \mathrm{~V}\) household electricity. A typical hot dog has a mass of \(60 \mathrm{~g}\) and a resistance of \(150 \Omega\). How long will it take for the cooker to raise the temperature of the hot dog from \(20^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) to \(80^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) ? The specific heat of a hot dog is approximately \(2500 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{kg} \cdot \mathrm{K}\).
