Hi,

I am trying to calculate the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a
rubber sphere by 20 degree's celsius within 10 seconds. The rubber sphere will be
heated via radiation in a closed system.

I have calculated the specific heat capactity, by using the formula

q = m x Cg x (Tf - Ti)

However, it does not tell me how long it will take for the sphere to reach
the desired temperature.

Disclaimer : I am not a student and this is not a homework question.

Regards,
