Question: Consider identically sized blocks (30 250 200mm 3 ) of pure aluminium, pure copper, and pure iron. Equal amounts of energy are added

Consider identically sized blocks (30 × 250 × 200mm3) of pure aluminium, pure copper, and pure iron. Equal amounts of energy are added to each block such that the internal energy increases by 600 kJ in the process. Estimate the final temperature of each block if the initial temperature is 300 K.(Credit: Evgeny Dergachev/Alamy Stock Photo.)
