Question

12. Three (3) adjacent bodies whose initial temperatures are 1500F, 3500F and 600F have specific
heats of 2lb-ft/lb0R, 4lb-ft/lb0R and 3.5lb-ft/lb0R respectively. They are all placed inside a closed
adiabatic (perfectly insulated) container until the equilibrium condition. If the first two (2) objects
have a masses of 5lb, 3lb respectively, determine the mass of the 3rd body if the equilibrium
temperature is attained at 87.50F


a. 39.2208lb b. 41.4787lb c. 42.8977lb d. 39.7227lb
