A chemical reaction takes place inside a flask submerged in a water bath. The water bath contains 3.80 kg of water at 26.5 °C. During the reaction 52.1 kJ of heat flows out of the bath and into the flask. Calculate the new temperature of the water bath. You can assume the specific heat capacity of water under these conditions is 4.18·J·g^−1K^−1. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.
