I'm trying to control the temperature of a wire/steel rod in my experiment. (of various size from a simple wire to a steel rod of diameter 5mm)
In my preliminary experiment, I simply heated with alcohol lamp.
But I'm not so sure which equation to use and if Q=cmT is the right equation, how I could calculate the value Q.
I want to construct an experiment setting (with equipments available in high school level) so that I could alter the temperature of the wire as I wish.
Can you suggest some ideas??
