Question

A hot solid substance with mass 3.44kg and temperature 81.5 ^oC, is taken out of the oven and placed in cool liquid water of mass 2.04kg and temperature 20 ^oC. Heat flows from the hot substance to the water until they are both at the equilibrium temperature of 31.8 ^oC. Assuming no heat transfer between the environment and the water/substance system, find the specific heat of the substance. Take the specific heat of water as 4190 Jkg ^-1C ^-1. Express your answer to at least 3 significant figures in Jkg ^-1C ^-1.
