iron block of unknown mass at 85oC is dropped into an insulated tank that contains 100L of water at 20oC. At the same time, a paddle wheel driven by a 200W motor is activated to stir the water. It is observed that thermal equilibrium is established after 20min with a final temperature of 24oC. Assuming that the container is perfectly insulated, determine the mass of the iron block (kg). Use C of IRON= 0.44 kJ/kg-K. draw a figure also, and explain each step by step solution.

4. An iron block of unknown mass at 85oC is dropped into an insulated tank that contains 100L of water at 20oC. At the same time, a paddle wheel driven by a 200W motor is activated to stir the water. It is observed that thermal equilibrium is established after 20min with a final temperature of 24oC. Assuming that the container is perfectly insulated, determine the mass of the iron block (kg). Use C of IRON= 0.44 kJ/kg-K. draw a figure also, and explain each step by step solution.
