Question: 2 - ( 2 0 points ) A thermal system consisting of a solid object ( with mass m = 2 k g ) is

2-(20 points) A thermal system consisting of a solid object (with mass m=2kg) is initially at a uniform temperature of T0=20C. At t=0, a heat source with a constant heat input Q=10W is applied to the object, causing the temperature to increase. The temperature change follows the equation:
mdT(t)dt=-k(T(t)-T)+Q
where:
T(t) is the temperature of the object at time t,
T=50C is the ambient temperature,
k=0.01**[your last 2 digits of your student ID number](WC) is the heat transfer coefficient, and
Q=10W is the heat source.
a) Apply Laplace transform and the inverse of Laplace transform to obtain T(t).
b) Discuss the behavior of the temperature as t and determine the steady-state temperature.
