Watt needed to heat up an iron, correct?
an IRON cube with (Length 1.3cm Width 1.3cm Height 0.7cm) so
Volume = 1.183cm^3 density of an IRON = 7.8gm/cm^3 so Mass = 9.2274gram Q=mcT c for iron = 0.450 J/(g·K), T difference = 160 degree celsius Q=9.2 . 0.45 . 160 Q=662.4Joule 1Joule = 1 Watt.second so if i need to heat up an IRON from 20C to 180C (T difference = 160 degree celsius) in 60second so i need (662.4/60) = 11.04Watt correct? please advice.. thanks |
