Question

The masses of the two weights are both equal to .5 kg. (neglect any inertia of the rest of the apparatus.) The masses fall 8 meters. Assume the mass of the water is 0.1 kg, and the water absorbs 85% of the heat. Calculate the rise in temperature of the water in degrees Celsius. Show all equations and show all work typed show final answer in deg C

Potential energy of
falling weights
