Answer:
The time is 0.713 sec.
Explanation:
Given that,
Weight of water = 4 liters
Initial temperature = 128°C
Power = 1400 Watts
Final temperature = 708°C
Weight = 1.1 kg
Specific heat of steel = 0.46 kJ/kg°C
Specific heat of water = 4.18 kJ/kg°C
We need to calculate the heat gained by bucket
Using formula of heat
Put the value into the formula
